STR

1. Enable HCM by turning in on under Settings > Ease of Access > Vision > High Contrast > Use high contrast
2. Choose a theme and confirm the Text color selection within the chosen theme (i.e. green for the High Contrast #2 theme)
3. In Firefox, Tab through the active UI controls and observe focus indication, i.e.:
   • Open the "Edit bookmark" panel from the address bar
   • Tab to the "Show editor when saving" checkbox, "Cancel"/"Remove bookmark" and "Save" buttons

Expected
Focus indicator should be using the Text color of the user selected HCM theme for all active UI

Actual
Focus indicator is using blue color that is not included in the color palette of the HCM across the UI.

Dão - This seems to be an a11y regression in nightly. Are we planning to address it in the 99 cycle?

I'll look into this.

Morgan is more knowledgeable on the HCM front, I'm going to have her answer this.

I don't have my windows laptop on me today so can't confirm, but I believe this is a regression -- in which case it should be a blocker for 99.

:ayeddi can you confirm this is a regression?

This is not a regression, but a bug.

Per Mozregression, it appears that the Text color for the --focus-outline was not used on primary buttons while on Windows OS HCM. This behavior first was introduced with the update of new style for "Edit bookmark" panel in April 2020 (the screenshot is attached below).

There were two options for primary buttons: either white or primary button blue outline, but not the Text color. The regressed bug 1755023 only changed the color from static white to static button blue.

Do we still plan on addressing this in the 99 cycle?

Potentially yes, if we can come up with a simple enough patch.

Is this a blocker?

I don't think so.

Anna, do you know if this is still an issue? Has anything changed from when you reported this?
