I was able to workaround the issue in Firefox by overriding the GTK theme ( https://askubuntu.com/questions/8336/how-can-one-make-firefo... ) and then applying a Firefox-level dark theme.

In my experience, Chrome appears to ignore GTK-level themes entirely.

Longer term, this will be fixed when https://bugzil.la/1411425 is resolved.

From the comment on the issue:

> Due to various various theme issues between platforms and HTML native theming, among other things, native theming should be removed entirely and instead replaced with internal 'native' elements in the browser itself.

Why are so many developers keen on stripping features instead of just making it optional? This isn't just some unfunded open source project.
