278730 - Groupboxes have platinum look (and are nearly invisible) instead of Aqua, need nsITheme love

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Core Graveyard :: Widget: Mac, defect)

Description

[timeless]

I suggested that we remove a seemingly random label to someone, but it turns out
the label is actually not so random, it's part of a groupbox. unfortunately
groupboxes have a platinum look which is invisible on os x.

Testcase?

This is because we can't do group boxes correctly in XUL. Panther-style group
boxes are drawn with alpha, so each nested group box darkens the background of
the  content area.

Your screenshot is a bad example, because the Kerberos UI isn't showing the
correct Panther look.

Is this just a case of needing bug 349859?
