Text field indistinguishable from background when inactive #28

Hi,

Before I start I want to say thank you for this theme, it is remarkably good makes Qt apps nearly native-like here.

I noticed a few glitches, though, with this one being most offensive as it makes it difficult to actually use some of the dialogs. For example, consider this search dialog from Double Commander:

Notice that when changing between text fields, the inactive field blends with the background. I glanced Kvantum Manager's settings but did not immediately see anything that could fix this.

I'd appreciate your feedback here. If I were to guess, some outline styling is missing here, because entry elements look like this in Libadwaita:


Using Kvantum 1.1.6 here.

EDIT. Just compared my Kvantum preview with yours and, oddly, my widget background is the same as the color of the widgets, which is why they blend. But even more oddly, the background actually gets fixed as soon as I grab the window over the titlebar! Best explained with a video:

Any chance this has something to do with #26 changes? EDIT: unlikely, only buttons were changed, apparently.
