The bug is a combination of two issues:
1) A bug in Mousepad, which makes Mousepad not respect the set "search-match" 
style; when you highlight all search matches, the background for the highlights 
is always light yellow
2) An accessibility issue in the color scheme (shipped in xubuntu-artwork) 
which makes the current search match not distinguishable enough. This can be 
fixed by changing the generic selection color.

Thus, targetting xubuntu-artwork too (and assigning myself to that one).

** Description changed:

  In Xubuntu using Mousepad with the default Xubuntu Light colour scheme
  it is hard to differentiate between the searched term and the rest of
  the text.
  
  It should show up as
  
- 
-       <!-- Search Matching  ?? -->
-       <style name="search-match"                foreground="white" 
background="green" />
+  <!-- Search Matching  ?? -->
+  <style name="search-match"                foreground="white" 
background="green" />
  
  <color name="green" value="#228822" />
  <color name="white" value="#ffffff" />
