Hello,

I develop a desktop application in Adobe AIR which uses WebKit engine for
displaying HTML content. My problem is that the WebKit seems to use predefined,
fix values for CSS2 System Colors instead of truly looking for the OS's system
colors.

>From more information on the CSS2 System Colors, please visit:
http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-color/#css2-system

However it is deprecated, and the CSS3 appearance property should be used
instead, but until that CSS3 property
(http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/WD-css3-ui-20030703/#appearance) is supported, it
would be great if the System Colors were handled correctly.

I've checked this "bug" not just with Adobe AIR applications but also with the
latest WebKit nightly build, as well as Safari (both PC and MacOSX versions)
and Google Chrome. 

IE (6+), Firefox and Opera return with the correct results. 

I've made a "See it yourself" test page to demonstrate the problem, and also
made a report page with screenshots of different desktop theme behave (linked
on the test page): http://www.gixx-web.eu/system.html

I'm looking forward your answer.


Yours sincerely,
Gabor Ivan
from Hungary
