2. Files and folders on the desktop don't change text colour.

Comment 1 Nate Graham 2024-02-15 04:31:10 UTC 
These labels are hardcoded to white on purpose: to offer adequate contrast against the black shadows. If we let the text color here respect the theme, it could disappear against the shadows. If we let the shadows adjust too to prevent that, then they wouldn't be shadows anymre since shadows are always black (ish).
