I totally agree :-)

It might be a bit “slicker” and “cleaner” to have the same accent colour for selection highlighting everywhere in the message list, but it is at the expense of readability and usability. I’d rather have a mishmash of different selection highlighting colours based on the underlying colours of the selected messages, with proper inversion of the text to white. I find the lack of readability of non-inverted darker text over a dark selection highlighting colour background much less “clean” and very inelegant and user-hostile.
