Xfce4-weather-plugin showing wrong text color in the panel

I’m using the Orta GTK theme:
http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Orta?content=134123

It applies a background image to panels and specifies a text color, namely #e0e0e0. However, the weather plugin does not respect this setting. It shows the default text color instead. See the screenshot attached for details.

I can reproduce this with some dark themes too. Will likely not be fixed in the next release and it might affect the forecast window etc., but I'll keep it in mind for later.

I've given this a closer look and tried to apply styles of different widgets to the custom scrollbox widget, which is derived from gtk_drawing_area. However, I failed making it look like the other labels in all themes and it may as well be a theming issue because the problem is only with few themes.

However, I will add an option in a future version where one can set the label color manually, because that certainly works.

Fixed in http://git.xfce.org/panel-plugins/xfce4-weather-plugin/commit/?id=2dc70062a2148e6adcfb7a4048723d2c36be6780 and follow-up commits, by allowing the user to choose a custom color or reset it to the default by middle-clicking on the color button.
