--- Comment #5 from Caolán McNamara <caol...@redhat.com> ---
LibreOffice takes a11y HighContrast to mean it has to do this sort of thing:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/winauto/high-contrast-parameter

"Map all colors to a single pair of foreground and background colors. Use the
GetSysColor function to determine the appropriate foreground and background
colors, using either a combination of COLOR_WINDOWTEXT and COLOR_WINDOW or a
combination of COLOR_BTNTEXT and COLOR_BTNFACE. The GetSysColor function
returns the colors selected by the user through the Control Panel.
    Omit any bitmapped images that would typically be displayed behind text.
Such images are visually distracting to a user who needs high contrast.
    Images that would typically be drawn in multiple colors should be drawn
using the foreground and background colors selected for text."

And there is a surprising amount of code to try and do all this. It is a bit
opaque to me whether what we currently do is what is truly useful and desirable
for a11y or if we've gone too far. Competitive comparison with contemporary MS
office suite and web browsers with a11y HighContrast enabled is probably
indicated.
