To be clear, considering my -0, I totally agree with the visibility point. This needs fixing, and I think the tabbed pane UI in FlatLaf has an accessibility issue here anyway. I just don't think that changing the design of the tabs (particularly making them not flat) is the way to fix it. I think the colour palette needs more contrast / accenting. You can see this in some of the other software screenshots you shared there. You can also see it in menus, option categories, etc. I would also say I do think the PR should probably be merged. I was hoping Karl might have some thoughts on fixing some of the issues in a way that more aligns with other areas of FlatLaf, but we can always tweak further afterwards ...
