One beef I have with it is the "text color" used for my Menu Bar.
I often paste from the clipboard. When I click on "Edit" in the
Menu Bar, with Skypilot I can't tell at a glance whether my
clipboard contains material to be copied. (The lowercase letters
in the word "Paste" are two millimeters high on my display screen;
they are shown greenish on a gray-blue background if "Paste" is *not*
a valid menu choice, but are shown blackish on a gray-blue background
if "Paste" is valid.) I have to actually slide the cursor to
the "Paste" entry, and verify that the background color gets
"highlighted", to be reassured that "Paste" should work.
Other themes make it easier to discern "grayed-out" menu options.
