Rafael:
Thank you for the additional information.
So apparently this is another GTK thing.
PcManFM still uses GTK, but it looks great. Its buttons only change
color when the mouse hovers over them.
I checked out two applications that I know use QT (rather than GTK), and
they look better.
So when we switch to QT, things will be better with customized colors.
It is something to look forward to.
Thanks again,
Aere

GTK3 windows and widgets cannot be colorized anymore. Only GTK2 apps
keep this feature. Forthcoming GTK4 libs won't be able to do that
neither. So it's not a 14.04 or 14.10 bug, it's simply a widget lack
of features.
Also, the theme has change, now windows' background are almost white
in contrast with "old" versions that were more gray(ish). Now the
Lubuntu default theme follows Ubuntu's Light Themes design guides.
Tooltips visibility problems should be fixed by now if you add the
Lubuntu Artwork Daily PPA or download the standalone version of the
theme. More info here:

Steven and All:
I noticed two other differences from how it used to be.
The biggest (most annoying) difference, is that in the past, the
"Normal windows" colors (foreground and background) were used for
the buttons as well.
Now, the button colors conform to some default that is not
available to be changed in the "Color" tab of the "Customize Look
and Feel" window.
The other difference, is that tool-tips ignore the "Tooltips"
color specified, and instead use the "Normal windows" colors,
which makes them indistinguishable from most of the window itself.
