I would rather like to see yourself posted PR to the dedicated subsytem 
at [1].

I think you want to implement tri-state `Dark mode` option. When it is 
set to `Yes`, always use dark theme regardless of system settings; when 
it is `No` the opposite; and `Auto` use dark theme when it is enabled in 
system settings, normal the opposite.
