I'm running Epiphany 3.0.3 on Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric) using the default theme.

Normally, the URL in the URL bar appears black on a light gray background and is easy to read.  While a page is loading, however, the URL is in white text on a light gray background and is virtually impossible to read.  This seems odd, and harms usability: even while a page is loading, I might want to know its URL so I can be sure that I've ended up where I wanted to go.

I'll attach a screenshot.

This is basically a bug in the theme you are using, which does not seem to be gnome's default. I guess report it in launchpad?
Comment 2 Adam Dingle 2011-07-08 17:16:39 UTC 
OK - I've now reported this in Launchpad:
