Please add support for "prefers-color-scheme"

Actual results:

Firefox does not have support "dark mode" and don't support "prefers-color-scheme"
Add-ons are slow than native implementation

Expected results:

• Needs support off "prefers-color-scheme"
• Need ways to turn the page more "dark"
• Native support for "dark mode" in all pages

Hi Wellington,

I've chosen a component for this bug in hope that someone with more expertise may look at it. We'll await their answer. If you consider that there's another component that's more proper for this case you may change it.

Regards, Flor.
