Hi, Kovid.

Although not related to 'Full text searching', I got a problem with this new version.
Up until now, I was testing the beta versions with a portable installation. Now, I've decided to install the 5.99.10 over my main 5.44 version.

My last beta version was 5.99.7, which I used to test my plugins for calibre 6 compatibility check. Everything was working fine, including the new themes mechanism. When I changed to the full blown installation, the automatic theme changing stopped working for my plugins (Skoob Sync and Check Books).

To be sure, I tested the 5.99.10 portable and it works fine (just like the 5.99.7 portable).

Using the normal installation makes these plugin's icons to disappear when I change from Dark to Light theme (on Windows). I'm using calibre style. Also, changing to System default makes the icons disappear too.

I'm using Windows 10 x64 and I have no entries on ../resources/images/ for these plugins, so no override there.

Maybe I made a mistake on the code for the new theme mechanism, but this does not explain why would it work on the portable version.
