Working more with TextViews, I may have some clues regarding the text color in macOS. Pasted text retains its font, color, and size style attributes.
When in a dark UI and text is pasted from an app that supports text styling, it's automatically assigned a black color, which is hard to read against a black or charcoal color background. This is true for text that appears white in an app using Mac's dark UI option, or text that appears black in a white window. Text copied and pasted from a plain-text editor like BBEdit appears in the default white color, panel font. When the UI color is changed in AI Preferences, text color is automatically changed to black or white as appropriate. The font and size remain unchanged.
I hope pasting text into a text view isn't handled entirely by the OS, and cannot be changed by CORE. In that case, could a function be added to remove all rich text formatting in a text view?
