well. in kcontrol > Appearance & Themes > GTK Styles and Fonts it's possible to employ different themes for GTK2 and GTK3 applications, and this fixes the menu color problem.
What I haven't been able to fix is the tiny fonts problem in TDE applications. Additionally, my cursor, in all its variants, has become *huge.*
Very strange indeed. And it came about from first unchecking and then rechecking Appearance & Themes > Colors > Apply colors to non-TDE applications.
How can this be?

If you open
http://fm.no-ip.com/Auth/dpi-screen-window.html
in Firefox, what is reported for DPI?
What does
$ xrdb -query | grep dpi
report?
You could try logging out of TDE, logging in on a vtty or in a different type of WM session, backing up ~/.trinity/share/config/kdeglobals, then deleting it and logging back into TDE. You'll lose some TDE customizations by having TDE create a new one from scratch, but no user data would be lost, and you can restore the backup if the deletion does not help.

It's been 120 dpi forever. Still is.

That's all stuff I was hoping to avoid in the upgrade. Instead, I adjusted the fonts in KControl to bring them back to their original apparent size. The only place (I've found) that I cannot adjust is BasKet, which is too bad.
Still, it seems to me it's a bug worth noting if unchecking the box in KControl > Appearance & Themes > Colors labeled "Apply colors to non-TDE applications" changes the font sizes in applications, Trinity and otherwise.
