Good, you *are* joking!

Not sure this is correct.  On 7.0 I had the redhat-style
yellow-on-grey scheme for Emacs (bizarre but fine) and the default
black-on-grey scheme for XEmacs (also fine, and works nicely with KDE
if you select "use kde colours for non-kde apps").

On the beta just now, the grey/yellow scheme has extended to XEmacs
and it is terrible.

Summary: just leave the default for XEmacs.  Users who really want
something with a grey background...
