Bug Description

Binary package hint: light-themes

Generally fine, but in Firefox it doesn't look very nice. Please find a good value for the contrast.

In Radiance it's nearly okay, but in Ambiance it's critical.

Please see attached screenshots of gnome-terminal tabs. Tabs are hard to distinguish and look messy with Radiance, while Ambiance is fine.

if you have many tabs open it is hard to see the border between two inactive tabs as well.

@James

what about the inactive tabs border/separator? Ad Dmitrijs said is really hard distinguish between different inactive tabs, see attached screenshot. There is yet another bug about it or I'll proceed to report it?
