            Bug ID: 357242
           Summary: Use theme-defined color for task label shadow
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: 5.5.0
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs

Currently, the task manager arbitrarily chooses the color of the label shadow
depending on the text color among two hard-coded options (black or white). It
would be nice if it instead tried to use a color defined by the Plasma theme.
According to
techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Plasma5/ThemeDetails#Colors, there is
already an entry in the colors file that is supposed to be used for text
decorations. It does not appear to be used anywhere in Plasma at the moment. I
think that color (namely, [Colors:Window] DecorationHover) could be used for
this purpose, or it could be any other currently unused color. Alternatively,
it could be defined by adding a new element in widgets/tasks.svg. If that
element isn't present in the file, the task manager could still choose the
color itself. This would make sure old unmaintained themes stay unaffected.
This would give more leeway for customization (see URL) and could provide an
easy way for users to correct problems like bug #313172.

Reproducible: Always
