Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-color] Mitigating fingerprinting for AccentColor/AccentColorText (#10372)

I believe that the controls should be able to match the system accent color if the UA so desires (ultimately this is all up to user agent discretion anyway), I don't think the inconsistency would be a real issue.

While I disagree with Lea's preferred outcome, I do agree that this should just be exposed in the default mode.

If the entropy really is unacceptable (there's plenty already exposed) then imo browsers should update their colour pipelines such that system colours can compute to their keywords or to a fake value but paint with their real value. This would probably provide privacy benefits for other existing system colours too.
