comment from upstream: "Theming all gtk widgets completely falls out of the scope of our color schemes, they are just meant to define the colors used for syntax highlighting. If you want a dark background on all text fields choose a gtk theme with such colors and, if you want, select a color scheme that doesn't set the backround color so that also the text area of gedit uses the color specified by the gtk theme " wontfixing this as well, thanks.
