Public bug reported:

I just installed a fresh new ubuntu machine, installed emacs, and went
through the tutorial. When the tutorial describes selecting text, it
says "Emacs highlights the text between the cursor and the position
where you typed C-<SPC>".

However, the color used to highlight the selection region (#FAFAFA) is
almost the same as the default background color (#FFFFFF), and is not
visible to a normal human eye.

The default color of such a basic feature (mentioned in the tutorial,
just after cusor movements) should be more sensible.
