At least: 

1) when the OOo Writer window becomes inactive, I see no change in percentage; 
the highlight colour 
remains the same

— comparing with most other applications, for me a green highlight becomes a 
grey highlight; maybe 
the HIG require correction

2) when black text is selected in Writer, OOo appliation of highlight makes the 
text appear a different 
colour: grey

— that may be an optical illusion, but it's optical, it's how I see it ;)

At the foot of Apple's HIG pages we have the opportunity to report 
inaccuracies. For another page (not 
this one) I did so the other day. They're not perfect. 

In any case: m39 and m41 are 'odd ones out', appearance of highlights and 
underlying text is differs 
from most other applications on Mac OS X.

Summary line is updated accordingly. 

Best, 
Graham
