Is it a bug?

How do native text fields and areas behave on Linux and macOS? Does any of them 
change colours when it's switched into uneditable mode?

AWT components should behave as native controls do. On Windows, uneditable text 
field and text area usually have a different background which corresponds to 
background of a dialog box. Is it the case on Linux and macOS?
