Why did you do that only when use_system_color is on?
Because I don't want to change behavior when not using system colors
and also because the old color scheme is designed such that there's
no need for changing colors when selecting (everything maintains the
same color and nonetheless remains visible: I really like it).
So it is a color scheme where one cannot change any color, for fear it
will not be consistent anymore. Drop customization altogether ;)
And why a can of worms? :)
There are a lot of details to be decided. When the selection changes the
colors, one has to decide what complementary color has to be used.
Background and foreground colors are not enough, because some colors may
collide with them and become invisible, as in the math case.
This is why using selection text everywhere makes sense IMO.
My plan was to continue forward with this color stuff. If the consensus
is that we want to continue looking "special", I can just stop there or
even revert. There is more color streamlining that I would like to
propose (bit by bit).
