I've noticed that the selection color has changes. Good for selections in HTML
documents and maybe even for styled input boxes. But, when I select my location
or search box the OS defined colors should be used.

Reproducible: Always

This bug is fixed by bug 56314's new patch.

But still reproduce the attachment 179851 [details]'s problem.
Because firefox uses original color(non-system color) in the location bar if the
URL is https.
In this case, we should reverse if necessary.
So, this problem is *not* bug.

Otherwise, if the background color is system window color, the selection colors
are not reversed always.

-> FIXED
