Unfortunately the High Contrast [Automatic|Disable|Enable] toggles the entire
UI, while the current expert configuration 'TransparentSelection' affects the
limited but very impactful UI in rendering cell selection for both sheet cells
in calc and tables in writer.

At 7.5 users of os/DE provided HC modes are now better served with Automatic
detections. But for low vision users (and folks needing more obvious visual
ques, or just when suffering eye fatigue) discovering the
'TransparentSelection' in expert configuration is a challenge.  

This is a useful UI setting that would be reasonable to provide via toggle from
the Tools -> Options -> Accessibility panel.
