default face so I guess yes.
should that not be a gui face or a menu face ?
Well, really whatever people want. I don't currently use X and have found
no way of setting the tab colors under mswindows so it doesn't bother me.
The idea was that the tab should be a continuation of the color of the
buffer. But I'm not sure you can set the background of the non-tab bit, so
maybe that's pie in the sky. I will bow to whatever people want (and at the
very least make it customizable), although precedence says they should be
the same color as the buffer. It might not look bad when I get around to
fixing the 3d-ness.

well i do have that in my .Xresources:
Emacs*borderColor: #8470ff
Emacs*menubar: False
Emacs*foreground: #8470ff
Emacs*background: black
and the tabs in the first frame that are not the first tab have all a
white fg instead of a blue one like every other menu item.
and for the other frames, all tabs have white fg.
Hmmn, what color is #8470ff? That should be the color you are getting.
What do you do in .emacs?
