Contributor guide
Research direction
Reproduce the issue by setting the Windows Terminal theme opposite to the system theme, opening Settings, and checking a drop-down option. Start by tracing how the Settings UI applies its theme; done means drop-down controls follow the application theme rather than the system theme.
