COMMENT
This BUG is bad news for any developer, because:
Value Highlighting provides at a glance knowledge of the worksheet
and
Background Colours provide at a glance knowledge of the worksheet
Both would normally be used together.
Using images as background may be required, or aesthetically pleasing.
As a background, values can be written over the images (very useful).
Background images, background colours, and value highlighting should be capable
of working together.
