Improve UI discoverability of the "Use system color scheme" option
See original GitHub issueCurrently this option is hard to find. The “Automation” menu access, triggered by the vertical ellipses next to the [ ON | OFF ]
switch, is not immediately obvious. This interaction could be improved in order to make the “use system color scheme” option easier to find, since this is likely a highly used and desirable feature. Numerous users have come to file an issue to suggest introducing this feature yet, discovered it already existed. Some were only able to determine where to enable it by reading the thread for closed issue #745. See comments starting here and below.
One possible interaction would be to update the main [ ON | OFF ]
toggle switch in the main menu to simply: [ ON | OFF | SYSTEM ]
Another possibility would be to just move everything under the “Automation” menu into the “More” tab where most other options are currently consolidated. This may be less desirable since the “More” menu is disabled when Dark Reader is turned off for a site.
