The icons may get lost in high contrast mode, but it's still clear to users if the panels are open or closed. Are you aware of actual usability issues?

I have no idea whether this is a real issue, but given that they offer an alternative approach, it might be worth considering.

The choice between completely changing how all icons work in jQuery UI and not addressing an issue that has never been a concern for a real user is a simple choice ;-)
