I realize that #CCC is not a great choice of background color, but just choose it to illustrate the issue.

Wow that looks bad 😦

That should probably not happen, we should probably fall back to grayscale if the user's using a background image, for a bunch of the same reasons as in #5277

This issue just appeared appeared for me with the v0.11.1251.0 release candidate released to the Store today. The previous Store version worked fine with ClearType and a background image.
