Hi,

I’m building a Forge Jira project page app. When Jira is set to dark theme, when I then open the app, the app flickers the light theme momentarily before switching to dark. I have the call to `view.theme.enable()` as the very first line in the `App()` function in `App.tsx`. Is there some way to avoid the flicker? Thanks.
