themeRoot in tailwind config should modify the :root styles in base to be under the root as well

[tholub99]

themeRoot works well when trying to nest daisyUI in existing projects, except for 3 styles that still are added from daisy base to the built css file at the :root scope of the page. Even with themeRoot if base is not disabled in daisy tailwind config every element on the page will receive these themes, which can interfere with page styling outside of daisyUI.
Specifically:

:root,
[data-theme] {
  background-color: var(--fallback-b1,oklch(var(--b1)/1));
  color: var(--fallback-bc,oklch(var(--bc)/1));
}

@supports not (color: oklch(0% 0 0)) {
  :root {
    color-scheme: light;
    --fallback-p: #491eff;
    --fallback-pc: #d4dbff;
    --fallback-s: #ff41c7;
    --fallback-sc: #fff9fc;
    --fallback-a: #00cfbd;
    --fallback-ac: #00100d;
    --fallback-n: #2b3440;
    --fallback-nc: #d7dde4;
    --fallback-b1: #ffffff;
    --fallback-b2: #e5e6e6;
    --fallback-b3: #e5e6e6;
    --fallback-bc: #1f2937;
    --fallback-in: #00b3f0;
    --fallback-inc: #000000;
    --fallback-su: #00ca92;
    --fallback-suc: #000000;
    --fallback-wa: #ffc22d;
    --fallback-wac: #000000;
    --fallback-er: #ff6f70;
    --fallback-erc: #000000;
  }

  @media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) {
    :root {
      color-scheme: dark;
      --fallback-p: #7582ff;
      --fallback-pc: #050617;
      --fallback-s: #ff71cf;
      --fallback-sc: #190211;
      --fallback-a: #00c7b5;
      --fallback-ac: #000e0c;
      --fallback-n: #2a323c;
      --fallback-nc: #a6adbb;
      --fallback-b1: #1d232a;
      --fallback-b2: #191e24;
      --fallback-b3: #15191e;
      --fallback-bc: #a6adbb;
      --fallback-in: #00b3f0;
      --fallback-inc: #000000;
      --fallback-su: #00ca92;
      --fallback-suc: #000000;
      --fallback-wa: #ffc22d;
      --fallback-wac: #000000;
      --fallback-er: #ff6f70;
      --fallback-erc: #000000;
    }
  }
}
}

Currently to make nesting work you can disable base in daisy config and copy these styles 1-for-1 into the final css build, replacing :root with your desired themeRoot.

I think it makes sense though to update the base styles to adhere to themeRoot if it is set, or to add a baseRoot option to the config as well as themeRoot.

Yes, please! I am right now needing to search a lot about complex management of shadow dom and other ideas just because of this issue :(
