I agree, and that's one reason why I don't like the current Windows UI 
much - interestingly, they seem to be turning this around a lot and 
making Windows 8 use high contrast again, even though with a completely 
different UI philosophy.

The "problem" of course is that Windows is AeroGlass all around, and 
Firefox needs to follow that or look outdated and not fitting into the 
system. Sometimes running on a system you don't design puts you into 
interesting situations in terms of UX planning.
