Yeah, this is a theme issue. It's not appropriate to use such heavy
transparency for button backgrounds, since buttons need to be readable no
matter what they're placed over. Please report this issue to the maintainers of
the affected themes. Thanks!

Thanks. I'm tempted to mark this as RESOLVED DOWNSTREAM since it's caused by
3rd-party themes using transparency in a somewhat inappropriate manner...

I've noticed this issue with "glassified" and "ktrans" desktop theme.
Seems ok with breeze desktop themes.

Yes the background seems to be transparent. I didn't know it was possible /
supported. Which desktop theme are you using?

That's the thing, leave options are not always white but their color is
foreground color of complementary color group...

Right, the issue in the screenshot is that the buttons are hard to read because
their text is white, and also the leave options buttons are practically
invisible because they're white against a light background.

Even if we fixed the button text to be black in this case, IMHO because the
leave options are always white, we need to always darken, never lighten.
Whenever we lighten, the leave options buttons are going to be unreadable. Does
that make sense?

The color which decides whether make the background darker or lighter is the
button background -- the color of OK button on the screenshot -- which is some
kind of light blue so it is considered light background since the mentioned
patch. IMHO even the buttons are hard to read which seems to be the root of the
problem to me. Or is this color combination intentional?

Thanks. Looks like the lightness calculation that was changed for Bug 382264 is
mis-perceiving this background as dark instead of light. Perhaps because of the
black terminal window?

We should just unconditionally darken everything IMHO instead of playing color
games like this.
