Yes, and *either* of two ways to address. One would be to implement support for
UWP themeing mechanisim--a lot of native Windows code. 

The other is to provide a full set of aplication colors touching all widgets of
the UI.

The new "LibreOffice Dark" theme covers maybe 2/3 of what would be needed for
Windows (and frankly all other platforms) with fixed defaults and no
"automatic" handling of os/DE theme.

That is, in addition to defining a full set of defaults for the bi-modal
(normal/dark) themes, provide a toggle to block os/DE theme parsing and then
use either of the LibreOffce application color themes from the Tools -> Options
-> Application Colors panel.

No additional Windows Display Manager/UWP refactoring, nor macOS NSview and
NScolor, native code would be needed at that point--the LibreOffice theme(s)
with good defaults would suffice.
