SUMMARY

Since plasma 5.25 the inactive tab color has become ultra dark for some reason. This new color doesn't seem to match anything else in the theme/window and there is no way to change it it seems. For Kate, where a lot of tabs are always open this dark color is takes away the focus from the active tab. 

Digging a bit, seems like it changed in https://invent.kde.org/plasma/breeze/-/merge_requests/188 which sounds like a very poor solution to me when its going to affect everything in KDE. Whats worse is it went in without any discussions/feedback etc from anyone.

OBSERVED RESULT

Very dark color that doesn't match anything in the theme


EXPECTED RESULT

Something not so dark / at least matching in the theme OR at least with the ability to change it.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

Linux/KDE Plasma: plasma 5.25
