The vast majority of the "inconsistencies" are from gtk2 (gtkrc), the
gtk3 side works here as expected with a few 'obscure' exceptions. From
gtkrc it seems that it is either all dark or all light, if so, then it's
been chosen to go with all light.

At least from my perspective that's a bug, was filed here separately, &
wasn't hard to switch back to all dark though with limited theming
knowledge couldn't get both light & dark
Bug 961679

As far as 'proper discussion' there was plenty of it, reached a point
where is was nothing more to be said that hasn't been already.
