Expected yes, correct no  :)  Perhaps the easiest solution for app[let]s
that do this sort of thing is to provide "use colours/fonts from the
current theme" checkboxes in the preferences dialog, where possible...
we can argue about whether this setting should be the default later!  

Gedit does this, which is just as well because right now it defaults to
black text on a black background... Desiato theme, anyone?  :)

Cheeri,
Calum.
