The cardinal rule of color selection: NEVER only set the foreground color or the background color alone. ALWAYS set both, otherwise you will get invisible text (or barely-visible text, like yellow on white) on somebody's terminal, and they will be very, very angry.
Since an application cannot set any explicit colors, only symbolic names for colors, and they're limited to 16. It's up to the theme of the terminal emulator to make sure all colors look good on the chosen background color.
