Some areas of improvements that should be tackled as follow ups:

  • Sometimes a white background flashes before the message is loaded and the styles are updated.
  • Sometimes we get a Uncaught TypeError: Window.getComputedStyle: Argument 1 is not an object. adaptMessageForDarkMode chrome://messenger/content/DarkReader.mjs:153. Probably MsgLoaded runs too early.
  • We should check that documentStyle.filter.includes("prefers-color-scheme: dark") actually does something and maybe improve it.
  • We should improve the conditions to not modify the content of an element if the style is already perfectly compatible with dark mode.

How about a toolbarbutton, perhaps as an add-on, to toggle it on and off quickly, in case one suspects it fails for a message?
