Description
Racket version: 8.1
OS: Windows 10
I keep getting thrown off by the visual language of the tabs.
While in light theme, it's clear that the darker tab is the one selected.
The dark theme of this image suggests that the lighter tab is the one selected, although this is not the case.
Would it be possible for the colours of the tabs to be inverted while in dark mode?

Research direction
Reproduce the tab-selection contrast problem in DrRacket 8.1 on Windows 10 using the attached light- and dark-theme examples. Locate the tab-rendering entry point by tracing the UI code, then verify that dark mode makes the selected tab visually unambiguous while preserving the light-theme behavior.
