FWIW, Firefox actually worked around this bug locally by making the bits
of firefox-UI in question able to paint the Theme's background gradient
(and we're making sure that any future release with GTK3 enabled will
include this patch).  It may still be worth taking the theme patch that
I attached here, but I don't think it'll affect Firefox's behavior
anymore.

So, I think this is WORKSFORME. Not sure what the correct launchpad
resolution is for that, but I'll let Launchpad folks close out this bug
as-appropriate.

Title:
  Ambiance & Radiance themes are missing a "background-color" for
  tooltip elements (needed for GTK3-enabled Firefox Nightly)

Bug description:
  Firefox Nightlies recently became GTK3-enabled, and that uncovered an
  issue with Ubuntu's Ambiance & Radiance GTK3 themes.

  They're missing a "background-color" for the .tooltip {...} CSS rule
  in their config files. They have a "tooltip_bg_color" variable, which
  they use to set up a background-image (really a gradient), but there's
  no background-color.

  This causes problems for GTK3-enabled Firefox, because it reads back some system-colors by setting up a dummy tooltip and reading the (currently-not-useful) background-color and the foreground-color. Right now, this produces unreadable output (for the user) with white-text-on-a-white-background, as shown in this screenshot:
   https://bug1187203.bmoattachments.org/attachment.cgi?id=8638351

  The solution is simple -- just add this one line to the ".tooltip" CSS rule in gtk-widgets.css:
     background-color: @tooltip_bg_color;
