In Control Panel search results:



The red line is Explorer & Shell > Shell > MonthCal > <7> > <2> Textcolor:Color

How come? Why not ContentPaneLine? Makes no sense to me.

(Purple text is Styles > ControlPanelStyle > MessageText  and Green text is Styles > ControlPanelStyle > ContentLink as expected)

indeed it makes no sense, but you know the best:

the more you dive into the UI-structure of Windows, the more you see, how inconsequent the Msstyle parts are taken for several UI parts.

additionally, it's confusing, how much leftovers of older windows versions in these structures are
(vertical previewpanes and so on, that made it even possible to reactivate multicolor previewpanes like longhorn/older vista beta builds.., they never removed it)

or how crazy UI-Parts are defined (like your example or just check the command-bar of the XPS-Document viewer, with some VS it looks weird, but the themers didn't make a mistake)
