I have the same problem, also GTK 2.x applications don't have the dark theme.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Does it make applications harder to use, or it just breaks visual consistency?

When answered please set status back to "confirmed". Thank you.

@ ritchy (atersinelux)

Please:

1. File a different bug report for GTK 2 applications.
2. Paste the new report link here.

Thank you.

This is fixed in Ubuntu 17.04 Alpha.

dark theme support was explicitly disabled until GNOME 3.22 because it needed improvements to GTK, gnome-calendar and the Adwaita theme. I don't believe this is fixable in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
