This is working as expected. We're honoring the UA stylesheet color, which is -moz-field, which is dependent on the OS and so on.

If I launch Firefox 70, configure a red background, and open data:text/html,<input type=text>, it shows white here on Linux. So I'm pretty sure this is invalid. Before that, we were putting a red background if the page did set any background (so like <input type=text style="background-color: white">). But that was never the intention of that code as that doesn't guarantee contrast.

So, what should I edit in about:config or similar to get rid of it?
Thank you very much!

Setting ui.-moz-field to your background color should work (maybe transparent even?).

Or alternatively a user stylesheet with input { /* whatever you want */ } should do as well
