It's useful to keep the foreground color to help seeing the context
especially when a match is highlighted on a font-look foreground.

But the problem needs to be fixed anyway.  So maybe we could add the
face attribute :distant-foreground to the `lazy-highlight' face
that could be applied only when the background color is near to the
foreground color like a cyan foreground on a cyan background.
