See the attached screenshot: A subset of my tabs seem to be developing white text, whereas the normal colour is grey.

I can't seem to figure out why; but, if I jump to the tab 'autoland' (which is white in the screenshot), then back to the currently selected tab, the 'autoland' tab becomes grey again, and as does the intervening 'Lando' tab, suggesting to me it's a range of tabs that are white for some reason.

Afaik there's no front-end code setting a lighter text color for certain tabs so I'm guessing this is a graphics bug.

Still no STR, but, one thing I did notice: The color fixed itself when I hovered over the top-right corner of my window, as I planned to resize it.

I'll try to get a video next time.

False diagnosis above: I've subsequently been able to resize the window with white tabs still.

Today, I attempted to use the Browser Toolbox to peek at the tab, but unfortunately while hovering over elements in the tree view of the inspector, it triggered a redraw of the tab and killed the white text.
