Possible to remove !important css tags for nightmode background and text?

Which Note Type (and version) is this about?

AnKingOverhaul, but I think other Anking style cards have this issue as well.

Checklist

Please replace the space inside the brackets with an x if the following items apply:

• I've verified that I use the latest version of the note type by redownloading it from AnkiWeb
• I've checked if anyone else asked this question before by looking through the issue reports.
• I've read through the README documents on this github and/or watched the tutorial video on the note types

What Anki version are you using?

*Please open Anki, go to Help → About (windows) or Anki → About Anki (mac) to find the version. Edit the value between the backticks below

25.09.4

Problem

I am using an add-on which allows me to change the background colors for Anki. I noticed that it works ok in lightmode, but fails which I change Anki over to darkmode. There is a persistent black box over most of the review page. I believe I isolated the issue to the use of !important on a few CSS classes specific to nightmode. See the before and after pictures, as well as the portion of CSS I commented out which ended up fixing the issue.

Proposed Fix

I wonder if the !important keyword could be removed, which would allow local settings to override the background that is set in the card? I could of course change the card CSS myself on my machine, but I expect other people have or will run into this issue as well when they try to set a custom background color.

If removing !important seems possible, I would be happy to submit a PR.
