I did put some code together with suggestions on EmacsWiki. I am
trying to understand how to find some better choices based on color
theory, but I don't know much about it so I am trying to find someone
who knows. I got an answer from one of the GIMP developers which I am
looking into. I will come back with more information when I have had
time to understand it a bit better.
In the mean time anyone can add suggestions on that page on EmacsWiki.
The code will display those suggestions within Emacs so you can see
how it looks. It also display luminance color contrast (suggested by
WCAG).
