The screenshots help explain a decision I never quite got—why MuseScore 2 no longer uses the native UI theme of the system it's installed on, where MuseScore 1 did. Back during the 2.0 beta period I asked about this, and was told that it was too difficult to support the native themes. As far as I could tell, an app just had to play the chameleon to match its surroundings, which I had seen MuseScore 1.3 do automatically on different versions of OS X. But now, I see a concrete example of that failing in an ugly way:

Whatever OS that is, it causes half the items in the Lines palette to turn white, and the other half black. But with 2.0, everything changes appropriately when switching to the dark theme.
