            Bug ID: 352506
           Summary: Breeze High Contrast color scheme has defaults that
                    are bad for people with low contrast sensitivity
                    vision
           Product: Breeze
           Version: 5.4.0
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: plasma-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: blargle.ragequit at gmail.com

Breeze High Contrast by default has bright-blue title bars with thin, white
text.  This is illegible to me as someone who actually struggles with low
contrast sensitivity.  The title bars should have a dark background, just like
in Breeze Dark, for maximum visibility.  Additionally, after selecting Breeze
High Contrast I can no longer see the icons on buttons.  Because I'm also
dyslexic, button icons are incredibly useful for not needing to stop and try to
read the text on the buttons.  This can be fixed by switching to the Breeze
Dark icons, but this wasn't immediately obvious to me and I'm worried it won't
be to some others, either.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start from vanilla plasma desktop.
2. Use Colors KCM to change the application color scheme to Breeze High
Contrast.
3. Click Apply.

Actual Results:  
It is hard for people with low contrast sensitivity to read the title bar, and
button icons seem to have disappeared.

Expected Results:  
People with low contrast sensitivity can suddenly use their desktops as well as
everyone else.
