Can I make a suggestion? I understand that it goes against your ideas, but it will stop people from complaining about having either the light or dark colour schemes. Why not just offer the two options and let people choose which is best for their wiki? It still keeps the bar standardised between the two options, but it makes people on both light and dark themed wikis happy, rather than having them both unhappy? The current method is a compromise. Why not just please both types of people as best you can within the need to keep things standardised? Just a suggestion. The fade is definitely still better than keeping the bar white all the time though for the main wiki I edit though.
