593070 - Quick filter search area shows white text on two different off white backgrounds [accessability] [regression]

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 575841

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Joshua Hudson]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.8) Gecko/20100722 Firefox/3.6.8 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.8) Gecko/20100802 Thunderbird/3.1.2

Quick filter message headers show white on off-white, which is unusable.

Regression caused due to update taken yesterday.

I need a quick fix for this one.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Set color theme (not mode) to a high contrast black, type something into quick filter
Actual Results:  
List showed up with two off-whites marking off the messges, all messages shown with white text on off-white backgrounds, first message selected (that one has white on medium gray)

Expected Results:  
Expected white on black, which was the behavior of previous version

I run Thunderbird solely for the quick search and now it's almost useless.

do you have the issue if you start thunderbird in -safe-mode ? (http://support.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode)

Problem is still there in safe mode.

This seems very much as bug 575841, who has a working patch, but needs a UI review.
