My 2 cents. If I change color preference to "Use System colors" the background becomes white. If I pick a color in the palette, the background uses that color. If I "Allow pages to chose their own colors, instead of my selections above" (my default) the background is a dark grey. The browser isn't overriding my settings at all, depending on how I configure my preferences. -- Thunderbird Beta | openSUSE 12.1 | KDE 4.7.2 Humans aren't a color of skin, a religion, a sex, a sexual orientation, or a flag.
