No: Emacs-24.3 uses the system's fg highlight color for various reasons,
but it's a regression and we should fix it. As pointed out, most other
text editors only use the system's bg color for highlighting but leave
the fg color unchanged during highlighting. That's on the average
a better choice (even if some people like it less: they can Customize
this aspect very easily).
The issue is how to make sure that this "system bg + font-lock
foreground" always results in readable text.
