Specifying default theme in Eclipse product doesn't work

I'm trying to create an Eclipse 4.8 application and defining the theme with the org.eclipse.core.runtime.products extension point.

I'd like to have the dark theme that bundled with org.eclipse.ui.theme_1.2.100 be the default.

I see this in the plugin XML:

   <stylesheet
         uri="css/dark/e4-dark_preferencestyle.css">
      <themeid
            refid="org.eclipse.e4.ui.css.theme.e4_dark"></themeid>
   </stylesheet>

I'm specifying my product like this:

<plugin>
   <extension id="ide" point="org.eclipse.core.runtime.products">
      <product application="org.eclipse.ui.ide.workbench" name="%productName" description="%productName">
         <property name="introTitle" value="%introTitle" />
         <property name="applicationCSSResources" value="platform:/plugin/org.eclipse.platform/images/" />
         <property name="applicationXMI" value="org.eclipse.platform/LegacyIDE.e4xmi" />
         <property name="cssTheme" value="org.eclipse.e4.ui.css.theme.e4_dark" />
         <property name="preferenceCustomization" value="plugin_customization.ini" />
      </product>
   </extension>
</plugin>

But when I build and launch the application, it seems to still be the default light theme. Am I defining the css properly?
