Please scratch that. I was misguided by very thin shapes of the default Cantarell font at small font sizes, which do result in strong color fringes even with lcddefault. Replacing Cantarell in gnome-shell.css with DejaVuSans makes color fringes almost disappear. This rules out lcdlegacy filter.

The patch works beautifully, my apologies for the noise.
