I'll let you do the asking, but the issue as I remember it is this.

For ascetically pleasing highlighting with a Solarized color scheme the
background color should be switched from dark to light or visa versa
without changing the foreground color, something like this:

(to be honest I can't find any statement specifying this on the
Solarized site and it's certainly a nit rather than a major need, I
suspect a lot of editors with Solarized schemes show only two colors
for highlighted text).

But the question is, is it possible, without writing a lot of
relatively low level code, to highlight selected text in a QTextEdit (or
whatever it is Leo uses), in such a way that the background color
changes, but the *multiple* different foreground colors in the selected
region remain unchanged.

Cheers -Terry
