--- Comment #8 from sdc.blanco at youmail.dk ---
Here is a patch that changes "Highlight Color" to "Character Highlighting
Color" in Writer.  

https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/109131

The reason to choose "Highlighting" was for consistency with the "Highlighting"
tab in the Paragraph Style and Character dialogs, which control the same
appearance as "Character Highlighting Color"

The patch does not change the Background Color, so maybe it can be considered
"a step in the right direction" or maybe it gives enough contrast to Background
Color that no further change is needed.

Or maybe "Background Fill Color" is a better label than "Paragraph Background
Color" -- because 
(a) it could be used for both Calc and Writer, without having to make a new
.uno,
(b) closer to "Fill Color" which is used for shapes, and 
(c) "Background Fill Color" would better "explain" why applying (the current)
"Background Color" to two empty paragraphs will fill the whole canvas (for
those two paragraphs), while I would expect "Paragraph Background Color" to
"stop" at the pilcrow.

If "Background Fill Color" would be a viable generic label, then I could make a
new patch.
