I wholly agree with Storm's assessment. As a programmer, a web developer, and a UI designer, the fact that Firefox has sat on this bug for over a decade is shameful, especially since it has been *patched* with extensions before.

For anyone affected, install the "Text Contrast for Dark Themes" (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/text-contrast-for-dark-themes/?src=api) extension. I've been using it for the past few weeks, and it resolves 98% of the problems related to this bug.

The fact that extension exists should NOT be taken as an excuse for Firefox not to fix this. If anything, it means that Firefox developers have even *less* excuse for taking care of the problem, since the patch code is in the extension!
