On macOS, with the new black window background, the traffic light buttons when the window is unfocused look too bright.  See the attached screen shot, which shows Nightly, QuickTime, and iTerm.

Is this something we can control?

Possibly, somehow... would need some experimenting.

FWIW, Spotify and Chrome incognito windows look pretty similar to Firefox (I'm only avoiding the word "identical" because I didn't screenshot and check the values). Another app I tried that has a dark titlebar is Bitwig 8-Track (which might be harder to procure and check with). That one looks similar as well.
I don't think this should be part of Photon. I can't see this being consistently implemented in my MacOS apps with the majority leaning towards light window controls (as Nihanth already suggested).
