Comment (by sabernhardt):

 For an immediate fix on current alternate color schemes, I agree with
 @melchoyce's suggestion of using a unified secondary button style for all
 seven. I'd even recommend starting with the exact set of grays assigned to
 those buttons in WordPress 5.2 (because that should work with all of
 them). The primary buttons also can be a little harder to read without the
 text-shadow, but I doubt it's worth adding that back. Anyway, I'm not
 interested in a major reversion. (Although I would welcome adding a
 "Legacy" color scheme for anyone who specifically chooses to return to the
 former styles, if that should come up in another discussion.)

 For testing: is there a special way to switch color schemes while in
 development? The options were not on my profile page in beta/trunk because
 "-src" was part of the WordPress version. If we do need to check these in
 trunk, I could upload a patch here that (temporarily) re-enables that
 section for testers.
