Dear Maintainer!

The inadmissibility of the black background color for cells is explained as follows: The highlighting of the active cell is done by means of a fine double frame with a transparent center. If cells are formatted with a black background color, the highlighting of the active cell is no longer visible, because black on black does not provide the necessary contrast for the human eye. Ergo, the black background color for cells should be illegal already for logical consideration, but also so that the user is protected from himself and his creativity.

TIA!
