Description

In recent version something must have happened to the background settings; previously it did inherit background properly from the theme; now it does alter from it - unfortunately picking up weird shade making screen bit hard to read.

Is there a way to control the background?

Research direction
Investigate the status screen rendering code in GitSavvy, likely in a Python file or related CSS/theme file. Check recent changes to the background handling by examining the git history. The issue mentions the background no longer inherits from the theme, so look for any modifications to the status screen's styling or configuration.
