Like I said, that isn't enough.  Most terminals (Konsole being the
only exception I know of) only allow you to set the foreground or
background color for some text to one of, at most, 256 specific
colors.  They allow you to set the *default* foreground or background
color to one of 16777216 colors.  So, the odds are against the user's
choice of background color even being able to be set with a
ctermbg=[0-255].
