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.
