           Summary: "menu" pseudocolor is badly chosen
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 525+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh
               URL: http://community.livejournal.com/lj_maintenance/
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Layout and Rendering
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: gregharewood at mac.com


The pseudocolor "menu" has been defined as rgb(14, 55, 231), i.e. the blue
background highlight of MacOS menus.  Whilst a useful color in its own right,
this does not duplicate typical usage of "menu" on other systems.  "menu" is
normally used for unselected items, and so should be a neutral gray - or, if
you can insert a background image instead of a color - it might usefully be the
same gradient or transparency that is used in menus.  In any case, it should
not be the menu-selected color.

See URL example from LiveJournal of how "menu" is typically used in the field;
note the menu bar across the top.
