 I also suffer from this very much since I prefer dark gtk themes.

 As for tooltips, add the following to your ~/.gtkrc
------------------
style "gtk-tooltips-style" {
#put any style definitions for tooltips, e.g.
  text[NORMAL] = "#ffffc0"  
  fg[NORMAL] = "#ffffc0"
}
widget "gtk-tooltips" style "gtk-tooltips-style"

-----------------
 it it should be OK. But don't forget to ask theme author to do the
same.

 As for email client and ICU and other apps - report your problems to authors
or prepare to hack the code yourself. I have the same strategy :(
