I guess using "color close to selection background color" seems wrong to me...either we need to use "blue" as used in native Numbers app...or if we need to use system color, then maybe use the accent color (as defined in System Preference) as focus ring color [ there's another Apple bug [JDK-8261243](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8261243) of JDK not following accent color for focus ring for some widgets]... ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/7768
