It is always possible to make it a configurable option, but by doing so, we add another thing that can break. One reason I prefer the black check mark is that it is standard behavior for a Java widget that is used by millions. It's probably well-debugged. :) That's not to say it's wrong to add things that simply add to the style of a program, just that it's important to be aware of the price.

Hi Dimitry,

this is a question of taste, IMHO. I like to green marks more.

Hello
please wait for the next checkin..

I think that the standard check marks from javax.swing.JCheckBoxMenuItem
  are better than the green OK - icon replacing the icon associated with
an action. You can see the both types in the attached picture. As you
see, the black check marks do not replace the action icons, so that it
can be shown even if the menu item is marked as selected.

So I propose to replace the JMenuItem  by JCheckBoxMenuItem  and not to
use the green check mark in the menus.
