Expected Behavior

The name of the current active tab should be clearly visible in high contrast themes, such as the Desert theme. Proper color contrast should be maintained to ensure the active tab’s name stands out from the background, ensuring easy identification.

Actual Behavior

The name of the current active tab is not visible or is poorly visible when using the High Contrast Desert theme. The tab name blends with the background, making it hard to distinguish which tab is active.
