Public bug reported:

In Zesty, inactive Terminator tabs now have a transparent background,
which makes the app look pretty broken.

It appears there's a default of full transparency configured in the CSS
in the code, which isn't being overridden for everything which actually
*needs* to not be transparent.

A minimal workaround seems to be:

It seems that upstream bug 1599453 may have something to do with this.
