Wine color theme used in the screenshots

I have configured my copy of wine to use colors as similar as possible to my
dark GTK theme (which is basically Adwaita Dark). I was hoping to achieve
modestly 3D-ish look, so I configured colors appropriately using buttons as
reference. I'm attaching my theme as a registry file.

However, I noticed a few inconsistencies in how Wine uses these colors when
drawing borders.

Particularly:
1. the bottom and right borders of sunk-in elements such as combo boxes, text
fields, checkbox fields, radio buttons, notepad text editor widget, various
lists (such as file and folder listing in File/Open dialog), slider bars and
probably others have their two colors mixed up.

2. top and left borders of some embossed elements, most notably, the scrollbar
buttons and thumbs, and drop-down list buttons have their two colors mixed up.

3. top and left borders of Window drop-down menus have their two colors mixed
up.

4. Menu bar color is not used for menu bar. Instead, menu background color is
used (which I suppose is meant for drop-down menu backgrounds).

5. I'm not sure if named widget groups such as ones in winecfg tabs are
supposed to look embossed or not, but they certainly do not.

I'll be attaching a few screen shots shortly, depicting status quo on the left
and desired looks on the right.
