The bug itself is not a DUP of 30173.
The issue raised here is different.
30173 is about the author of a page being able to change the color of a
control, either foreground or background.
The issue here appears to be about what the default color of controls is if the
author of the page does not alter it.
In off-line and on-line discussions it appears to me that a significant opinion
current has been built in the QtWebkit contributors' community, advocating
allowing authors to change the default colors as much as possible even if the
shape of the control is going to be degraded, and reflecting the color and
shape of the native controls both in the default CSS style attributes available
to inspection by Javascript running in the browser and in the default
appearance of the controls.
Not reflecting the platform theme colors in the appearance of the controls
would be very difficult since WebKit does not provide an implementation for
controls such as radio buttons and checkboxes and some QStyle implementations
can only render these controls in the default manner.
In conclusion, I believe that the current goal is to reflect theme colors in
QtWebkit controls, but reflect them accurately both for foreground and for
background.
