How to apply a theme to the close, minimize and fullscreen buttons?

As you can see in the following picture, the theme (in this case Dark Pitch 1.4.0 on Pale Moon 27b3 x86) is not applied fully to the buttons mentioned in the topic and to the edges of the window. Is there a way to fix it?

In short: It's not possible.

Those areas are drawn by the system, rather than the browser, so it isn't possible to style them, at least for the window frame (there's dirty hacks to style the caption buttons, see older versions of XMoon, but...I really don't like them).

The only platform where it's possible to style the caption buttons correctly is Windows 10, where this is already actively being styled.

I do plan to make a change here to always draw our own, skinned, caption buttons (when not using the menu bar). Once that has landed, it will become possible to skin these elements. Issue #160

Now that would be glorious since I (and I'm sure many others) are not migrating to Win 10 anytime soon.
