Clicking on anything and moving focus no longer shows what was chosen

What was expected?

highlight remains - the theming should reflect dark/light preferences as well

Steps to reproduce

ok - apologies - I asked someone else to look at the image and the text is indeed red.

The issue is that the font text is very hard to read for people that are red/green colour blind - one of the most common colour bindness variations there is. The red colour is fairly indistinguishable from the light greyish text on a bright white background.
