That was a design decision, the notification bar takes on fixed color for Info, and Warnings. No reason to adjust => NAB
Wouldn't reject the request so quickly. While the light colors are good in normal scenarios we may add dark variants too. However, the colors are hard-coded and should stay non-customizable, IMO.
While it was a design decision, as any decision it might not work in most scenarios, like black theme in Windows. Decisions are not sacred graal and there can be room for improvement. Probably on light theme the color of notification bar about update looks good. But on other popular themes it is not.
