Even if the application uses the correct @tooltip_fg_color, the application may still look odd due to the new themes using such a dark purple colour for the tooltip background. The author chose that colour with the impression that tooltips always using a light background colour (which is almost always the case, except for dark themes).
I'm attaching a patch against vino for consideration, that merely removes the use of the "gtk-tooltip" type in the code (note that the author specifically refers to it as a hack ;)).
