--- Comment #1 from Andrew Lake <jamboarder at gmail.com> ---
It appears the effect used to show an "empty" star is to desaturate the rating
(star) icon. The effect makes sense for hi color icon themes like oxygen.
However, monochrome or greyscale icons are by definition desaturated so the
effect doesn't result in any visible difference. We could add color to the
rating icon in the Breeze icon theme but that would break the style guidelines
for the icon theme, and might fairly be considered a band-aid for the
ineffectiveness of the desaturation effect to correctly produce the desired
"empty" star for monochrome and greyscale rating icons. One solution to the
underlying problem might be to decrease the opacity as well.

I'll confirm that this a problem, but I think the underlying problem is in the
components where ratings are displayed. I'm not entirely sure which components
those are.
