Dolphin is better then Nautilus and many possible Gnome users which could become Dolphin users might be put off by not being able to figure out how to make Dolphin follow Gnome's dark theme. Dolphin apparently expects to find the color of the background in the file `~/.config/kdeglobals`. One way around this if you are simply using Gnome is to go and set the variable there. However, if in the same machine you have both Plasma and Gnome sessions, altering this file will mess with plasma theming.
