I don't see a very large difference between yellow and #ffff88, but I
guess it's slightly better than what we have now.

FWIW, I think "lemon chiffon" is by far the best one.  It also fits
better with the rest of the default theme.

This is followed by "khaki1" or "light goldenrod", in that order.

I'm not against #ffff88 if that's what people want to see, but the
change is not large enough to make much of a difference here.

Yup.

I think "khaki3" stands out sufficiently well and goes well together
with "lemon chiffon", but there is obviously room for experimentation.
