I'd like to change the selection color of the search line edit field (the one opening with Alt-F2 or Alt-Space). Whatever I change in the color scheme as "Selection Background" is not reflected in this input field.
Confirmed. When I change to Honeycomb theme, selection in widget-based apps turns yellow whereas in Plasma it becomes gray
