Can definitely confirm that I am/was running 7.6.x, albeit from flathub, so
it's the GTK3 variant:

Version: 7.6.0.3 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 69edd8b8ebc41d00b4de3915dc82f8f0fc3b6265
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 6.4; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: fr-CA (en_CA.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Flatpak
Calc: threaded

The reason why it looks "highlighted in red" in your screenshot (but not in
mine) is because your search query text is "selected"; mine isn't (and doesn't
automatically get selected when I launch a search with the "Enter" key).

My issue is with the label widget, not the field.
I have no problem with the field's coloring.

Regardless of the field's coloring issue or not, my recommendation is to use an
operating system notification (if not an InfoBar widget) instead of the label
widget. Also, there would need to be a tooltip set on the error icon on the
field (currently there is nothing set).

I would like to suggest we unmark this here as a duplicate and reopen it,
as I believe that:
- It is an independently fixable thing;
- The scope and proposed solutions are clearer here, and probably more
actionable.
