Poor visibility of text in admin bar site list

[ericmann]

After updating my network to 3.2-bleeding today, I noticed some strange styling in the My Sites dropdown of the admin bar. While other dropdown menus look just fine (typical, gray text) the site list text seems to be showing white-on-black embossed.

I've attached a screenshot to demonstrate.

This negatively affects the visibility and readability of the list, and since this is the only dropdown exhibiting this particular style, I'm guessing it's a bug.

Tested both on the front-end and the back end of WordPress using the Prose child theme for Genesis, the Lexicon child theme for Genesis, and Twenty Ten just for completeness' sake. Also tested in both Chrome (11.0) and Firefox-Aurora (5.0a2).

Can you confirm if this fixes it.

Refresh, plus styling for strong tags

[johnjamesjacoby]

Tested and confirmed 17178.hover.patch is good.

In 17178.2.patch, I added a fix for strong tags in menus as the font-weight gets set to normal for all menu elements further up the stack. I also added the :hover font styling to strong tags, since it previously was only applied to anchors and spans.
