Here is a preview version:
we can probably still tone down some icons from pure white (such as the reading list icon) to a slightly bright tone.
To install, download archive and drop into Thunderbird Add-ns Manager (without extracting contents).
Apparently, the pro icons (and any svg images containing text) also display differently on other systems, I guess it is depending on whether the font (Bahnschrift) is installed. So I need to convert these to paths and make new versions of these svgs.
this is what it looks like in inkscape:
this is what the icon looks like on a user's machine (SmartTemplates, Linux) - the default font seems to be Times and leads to the characters being cut off, not very "Pro" looking
these are the icons I need to convert:
(the lock is just a placeholder idea for restricted features that are restricted by a standard license which may be usable with a sliding notification, I need a separate issue for simplifying this stuff as I think it seriously scares off users). I started some work in QuickFolders to show restricted features in settings like this:
with standard license
without license
the feature "ungelesene überspringen" changes its icon on hover to the "lock" icon:
the button can still be used / activated but it will show the notification at the bottom of 3pane.
it's my best chance to get people to convert to contributors in QF

Without the switch
svg.context-properties.content.enabled = true
enabled svg icons on the QuickFolders preferences screens are hard to read in dark mode:this switch will not be around forever, so let's redesign the svg icons so they color correctly without this.
