Noticed this shortly after my update to the beta: 20180312152746 60.0b3. Running 10.13.4 Beta (17E182a)

Any tab I place focus on is blurry. See attached screenshot.

Looks like the tab itself is missing its light gray background. This sounds like a Theme bug.

The text looks blurry on the black background, but only because it's expecting to be drawn onto a light background.
Yes, I can confirm when switching back to the default theme the issue goes away. It appears a few of the dark themes I tried were problematic.

Can you find out which theme exactly it was? The toolbar itself is still light.

If it's an add-on theme, we should probably remove the -moz-font-smoothing-background-color rule here when such a theme is used: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/8fa0b32c84f924c6809c690117dbd59591f79607/browser/themes/osx/browser.css#746-748

The theme I see it with is the Black Wolf Theme: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/the-black-wolf/

Another theme which has a different issue is https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bluemotif/ - in that theme I can see the text in my focused tab but not the unfocused ones.

Both themes work fine for me in the current Beta build.
