SUMMARY

This is more an accessibility thing, but when using picking accent color from
wallpaper setting, the accent color should also take the window background
color into account. Like mentioned here, there should be 4.5:1 ratio between
foreground and background color for accessibility reasons:

Of course, there will always be color combinations that just do not work. But
keeping good contrast between accent and background color should help a lot. At
the very least, it would keep items readable even if the accent color is not
desirable.

color. The color picking method should use that background color and calculate
a proper accent color that keeps a good contrast between background and
foreground.

No idea if something like this is already in the works so here's my system
information.
