Comment #5 on issue 583 by mjhecht: Accessibility problems with Chrome UI
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=583

(I originally filed a similar issue internally -- this stems from the same  
overall
problem as the above. Attaching another screenshot and the original issue  
text.)

Certain Windows themes set the "button text color" to be light on a darker
background. It appears that the URL bar in Chrome is picking up Windows  
system colors
for SOME aspects of styling. For example, the background color is  
hard-coded at white
or light yellow, but the foreground color is the Windows color. This leads  
to
situations such as in the attached screenshot, where text is invisible or  
barely
visible.

Either all colors should be specified by the application, or all colors  
should be
based on the Windows system colors (so that in this case, we'd get a dark  
background
to go with the light foreground text). For Chrome, it seems that the  
application
should fully specify its own colors and not depend on the OS at all.
