Re: [csswg-drafts] [mediaqueries-5] Dark Mode in CSS

>From the recent comments, I think it is safe to say:

- Using an inverted-colors mode to create a dark effect assumes that most websites have a light mode design. If used on a website with a dark design, the effect is counter-productive.

- Therefore, browsers **should not** expose a `prefers-ui-theme: dark` setting at the same time as applying inverted colors.

- Ideally, browsers would switch to using a `prefers-ui-theme` media query approach as the default strategy, and then let users invert colors on individual web sites if the author-supplied theme doesn't match the user's preference.  Maybe even a smart browser could detect when the main body text is dark or light & apply the filter automatically.
