Description
### Expected
All graphic and design in the app should work the same our other electron apps
### Observed
Graphics appear buggy in dark mode on Windows.
User decription:
> Menus will show content beneath them, or focused elements will not lose the focus styling after cursor moves somewhere else. Menus / elements appearing on top of others will also take a while to disappear, as if the fade out animation got stuck. Like the elements will go away, but the outer container will remain for few seconds showing the boundary and blank content, shading the content beneath


### Where did you see the bug
Simplenote v2.22.1
Windows 10 Pro 22H2.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported dark-mode behavior in Simplenote v2.22.1 on Windows 10 Pro 22H2, using the attached screenshots as reference. Investigate the menus, focused elements, and fade-out behavior described in the issue; done means these graphics and overlays behave consistently without showing content beneath them or leaving stale boundaries.
