Fair. It’s obviously impossible for the system to account for apps dynamically changing their colors. It is similarly broken for automatic dark/light mode switching, because libadwaita never reloads the overridden colors.
Given accent colors were already a really hard sell to some people, I expect this to go nowhere, but I would really like to see an open-minded discussion about further aspects of recoloring (not theming) in good faith.
I don’t think re-coloring has nearly the same class of problems outlined by https://stopthemingmy.app and similar blog posts. I have a couple of very simple ideas on how to improve the situation (for hopefully everyone), I would love to pitch and talk about (without any expectations whatsoever).
If you (or anybody from the GNOME community for that matter) would be open to that, I would appreciate it.
