Hm...  I don't quite follow.  The character under point will have the
cursor colour as the background colour, and it doesn't matter what the
foreground colour of that character is: Today the foreground colour
(when the cursor is over the character) is the character's background
colour, but the proposal is to change that to use the default face's
background colour instead.  (Which is pretty much guaranteed to be
different that the cursor's colour.)
