Title:
  highlight colors for folder panel are not readable

Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: thunderbird

  See the attached screenshot.

  Thunderbird tries to render folders with unread messages with text in
  orange color. Unfortunately, it does not set background for such text
  and as a result, I get light orange on white (barely readable) or
  light orange on light grey (selected folder with a new message, not
  readable at all).

  In the attached screenshot, the selected folder label is "bugs (8)" in
  bold light orange text  on light grey background, below that is label
  "font (14)" in light orange on white, below that is folder labeled
  "gradu" (black on white) which contains no new messages.

  Note that to reproduce the light orange on light grey one must first
  select a folder with new messages (a folder with bolded label), which
  will turn into bolded black text on light grey (this is fine). After
  that, when this folder receives a new message, label will be colored
  light orange but the background is not changed.

  Suggested fix: if label foreground text is changed from theme default, the background color MUST be changed, too (compare to CSS styles, one should always define either no foreground or background color or both).
  Alternative fix: compute suitable foreground color automatically from theme selection background and folder pane background colors. Using a hard coded light orange is not okay.

  My gnome/gtk/metacity appeareance theme is "Human-Clearlooks", in case
  this makes a difference.
