Description BJ Burg 2015-09-15 09:58:54 PDT 
At a minimum, we should follow which settings Xcode respects (which is a small subset compared to Mail.app, Instruments.app, or other software)

 * DOM element hover/selection should match system highlight color
 * Navigation sidebar selections should match system tint (Aqua or Graphite)
 * Rendering frame timeline selections should match system highlight color
 * Console message selections should match system highlight color
 * Timeline sidebar elements should match system highlight color

We probably need to add a few methods to InspectorFrontendHost that query the frontend page's RenderTheme for these colors. It would be nice to hook up a notification for system colors changing so these update dynamically.

We can expose the user's color via InspectorFrontEndHost. There should be little concern about contrast issues, if the user picked the color.
