I thought I noticed the blues being different, so I checked in GIMP and sure enough: nm status icon's switch's blue: 204a87 (no gradient) g-c-c tree view selection: 4a90d9 g-c-c switch's blue: 5099e6 gradient to 7eb5ed
The reason why I originally darkened the default selection color was the lacking contrast to the ON/I label. However the issue is not that dramatic and the added consistency might take a precedence. Attaching a patch to have the shell widgets use the selection color (#4a90d9).

I think we should remove the blue and use a shade of grey then. GNOME Shell is monochrome and using a light blue doesn't seem to work. I suggest something like #666 for the switch and volume slider.
in git master now.
