Yes it is because Firefox does not support different colors for
selected/unselected menu items. Thus the main color is white so that
when you click a menu it still to be readable (remains white). I'm not a
css/Firefox expert but if there is one, he is welcomed to help on this
issue.

We will keep this thing up to the end (btw in the engine we are using
now there are no dotted lines at all) and when it comes the time for
change we will change it (it will not be hidden though).

made at the wiki. Thus will allow people with the necessary knowledge to
help if they can.
