Comment (by mrwweb):

 I see the expectation of this ticket was that other color schemes will be
 unaffected. When using the Midnight color scheme, the Plugins screen is
 now extremely red:

 ''Alt: Each plugin row has light red background with dark red left
 border.''

 Looking at the custom properties, I don't even see the blue that's
 supposedly part of the color scheme:

 ''Alt: Aqua blue shade from Midnight color scheme circled.''

 [[Image(https://cldup.com/_9r9_sUaMK.png)]]
 ''Alt: Dev Tools screenshot of custom properties for `body.admin-color-
 midnight` showing only red shades.''

 Was that intended? If it's a regression, I'm happy to open a new issue.
