Well, my feeling is probably due to the proximity of the sorting highlight
and not only the color used.
We have used light red for a similar option on client site, see
http://observatoirebbc.org/site/ObservatoireBBC/MoteurRecherche for a
sample. I do not say this is a sample to follow blindly, but you will see
that this more highlighted :) (design there is not my choice !)

Ok, I have quick look to that, but it definetly require more attention.
It would be nice to have a page on XWiki.org describing the rationale behind
current choices, so we keep on track when evolution requires changes.
