I already had the user themes extension installed (and in gnome-tweaks,
it says user themes are turned on and have no errors). I didn't have the
gnome-shell-extensions package, but installing it doesn't fix the bug.
Note that if I choose a dark user them for the shell, it does change the
toolbar menus to a dark background (although the text is almost
unreadable on many of the ones I have installed now because it's not
light enough, which I'm pretty sure didn't use to be the case).
The only reason I had any shell themes installed was because the pop-up
system windows (eg that you get when you press ALT-F2) started ignoring
the application theme settings as soon as yaru came along. But even
after yaru came along, the toolbar menus still used to pick up the
application theme settings; it's just that they're hard-coded to yaru
(light) now.

Title:
gnome-shell top bar menus no longer honour dark theme settings
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
When you selected a dark theme, the gnome-shell top bar menus used to
also switch to match the theme (ie light text on a dark background) -
eg see the screenshot showing the top-bar calendar at
https://micheleg.github.io/dash-to-dock/news/2015/03/01/approaching-
gnome-3.16.html).
This is no longer the case - see attached screenshot for yark-dark.
It's the same with adwaita-dark.
