Not sure what lack of contrast you’re talking about with Darcula. To my eyes
everything that is of interest or always in my face has good contrast - to the
extent possible and still distinguish between different types of text
(keywords, comments, etc.). Tab labels, output text, and tree node labels are
pretty much white (or close to it) on very dark shades of grey. Everything in
the editor is customizable too (I rarely read comments and find them
distracting, so I gave them less contrast).
In general I avoid white backgrounds like the plague. I attribute my longevity
as a developer with still decent eyesight (been coding since 1980) to the
avoidance of it :-)

"Lack of contrast"? Let's start with the editor window: light gray text on dark
gray background? That's low contrast, and very hard to read. My feeling is, at
least one of foreground color or background color should almost always be full
white or full black.
Regarding your purposefully making comments less contrasty because you find them
"distracting", Shame on you!
Maybe I can start with darcula and tweak it to something I can use. I'll try.
