This looks to be cause by restrictions of WebExtensions API. browser.theme.getCurrent()
always returns colors and image URLs for the bright mode for Firefox Alpenglow, and it is impossible to know which colors and images to be used on the dark mode.
Any chance you could file a Bugzilla bug filed about this? (I implemented some of the Alpenglow pieces, and I'd love to see it be possible to use it more effectively).
This restriction looks to be tracked at the bug: 1542044 - browser.theme.getCurrent() & onUpdated should take in account dark_theme
manifest field
Great; thanks!
no, bad bot

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1786564 is listed as resolved in FF106. Does this resolve this issue?
Looking at that bug, it seems to refer to the gradient background having disappeared in Firefox 105 beta builds. This issue is about the background not responding to the system dark theme. It should match the colour of the toolbar. Bug 1542044 is the correct bug to track.

This is still relevant 😞
This issues tracker currently aims to track issues which can (and should) be fixed by TST. Firefox-side issues which can't be fixed by an addon (like WebExtensions API restriction) may be closed whether it still happens actually, otherwise this list of issues may be fullfilled with this kind issues...

i'm guessing nothing on TST would fix this?

Steps to reproduce

TST shows the dark purple background like the native sidebars.

TST shows the light Alpenglow background.
