Problem

Blockquote text and quote bars used muted theme colors that could be hard to read in some themes. Composer quotes also looked disabled while being edited.

Change

Blockquotes now inherit their surrounding text color, and their bars use that color at 35% opacity. This keeps quotes readable and consistent across chat, Markdown previews, and composer drafts.

Scope and approval

This is a focused fix for an obvious styling bug in the shared web and desktop UI.

Verification

Checked messages, nested quotes, and composer drafts across all 12 built-in theme and appearance combinations. check:changed passed.
