Bug Description

When using MacOS 10.14 Mojave with the new dark appearance KiCad 5.0.1 ends up showing white text on a light background in a lot of places like the settings menu, most modal windows and dropdown elements. This hurts readability of this text a lot.

Preferably KiCad would support the dark mode properly by using a dark background, but a workaround / temporary fix might be explicitly setting the text to black.
