Illegible UI text on dark theme on Linux

Hi, I'm on Linux (Manjaro), using Zotero from AUR (Arch User Repository). I use GNOME as Desktop Environment, with a dark theme (Adwaita dark), although any dark theme will reproduce equally this problem.

In Zotero 5.0.96 (or any version from mid 2019), the "Item type" field (e.g. Book, Book section) doesn't follow the text color of the entire UI: it keeps as black, even if system is in dark theme.

All the UI is correctly in dark theme (perhaps as builtin functionality), just this field is black. The field label (where one reads "Item type") is correctly set as the rest of the UI.

In Windows, as long as I tested, Zotero doesn't follow system theme. In Linux (GNOME), dark themes work with Zotero (with this little problem) as long as I started to use Linux (mid 2019).

Anyway, thank you for your work!
