Vibrancy was added to macOS' titlebar in bug 1052466, but then it was backed out in bug 1161565 :/
(I'm mentioning this because the mockup seems to use the style of -moz-appearance: -moz-mac-vibrancy-dark;)

The patch colors the tabs toolbar, which has the effect of coloring the titlebar on Mac.

- This does not at present seem to affect double-click-to-maximize functionality in the empty areas of the tabs toolbar.

- I can't seem to color the actual title bar when it's enabled, it seems to use the "OS provided titlebar" for want of a more technical term.

- Interestingly the "Title bar" checkbox in customization mode and the browser.tabs.drawInTitlebar pref seem to have different effects when toggled, though their states are coupled. Toggling the checkbox results in an "OS provided titlebar" for me, and toggling the pref in about:config results in a titlebar whose styling we appear to have control of. I'm investigating, but maybe we should address this in a follow-up bug.

It's not clear to me what this patch is actually about. If it's about lwthemes as claimed in the summary, then this doesn't belong in compacttheme.css but browser.css.

Why is this better than using #titlebar?

Eh, it's for the compact themes. Hasty commit message. Sorry.

Hmm, seems like it's not; double-click-to-maximize still works. I updated the patch.

----------------------------------------------

So, there seems to be a bug: toggling the title bar from customization mode behaves differently from flipping the pref in about:config. Gijs pointed me to a possible place to start investigating this. I'm going to file another bug for it, and meanwhile the patches in this bug only have effect for [tabsintitlebar].

The order of the above two rules is backwards. The one overriding the other's -moz-appearance with the more specific selector should come second to make this code more easily comprehensible.

-moz-mac-vibrancy-dark doesn't work on OSX versions lower than 10.10 (Yosemite).

This should remain inherit. You need to set the text color on #TabsToolbar, which will also fix icon colors.

<nhnt11> dao: I'm only explicitly changing the text color of the *selected* tab
The icons are already fixed
because I changed the --tabs-toolbar-color value or whatever
re. your review some minutes ago
is there a better way to do this
<dao> oh, --tabs-toolbar-color
<dao> let's get rid of this, it's only used once
<nhnt11> sure
<dao> and let's not add --tabs-toolbar-selected-tab-color either

You can drop -moz-appearance: none, it's the default.

And please drop this rule from photon: http://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/ae94cfb36d804727dfb38f2750bfcaab4621df6e/browser/themes/osx/browser.css#165-167

Not sure why this is an alpha color, transparency doesn't even work (you can't see what's behind the window).

Even if it did, -moz-mac-vibrancy-dark also includes a blur effect, and a few extra native filters.

It lets through part of the window background. Could reach the same result with a lighter opaque color.

In this update to the patch you silently removed the vibrancy style. I'm curious about the reasons for this change. Was it because the requirements from UX changed, or because you were hitting bugs, or because of something else?

The original patch was backed out due to talos regressions (see bug 1374725) and we decided to land a solid colour for the time being. I want to do some digging/talking to find out if we can land vibrancy eventually.

Tested on latest Nightly 57.0a1 (2017-08-16) (64-bit) on Mac OXS 10.10 and 10.12.5 
When the Title bar box is checked, on some Themes (Dark and Space Fantasy) the title bar is barely visible. See also issue  1390885 for this matter, as I understood that the Default Color of Title Bar is directly connected with the Theme used. Thank you
