Cannot see the double quote mark when the text is highlighted.

See the double quote after red is very hard to see. Maybe make the highlighted area a bit smaller for html?
In fact, it would be better if the highlighted area is below other texts.
For the double quote, you can prevent that by changing the styles of the markers to remove the margins and paddings.
For the marker z-index, putting it behind text make it impossible to use a contrast color for the text, so if the marker color is close to the editor text color it becomes unreadable.
Can the highlighted texts have the highest z-index, then the markers, and the rest texts have the lowest?
It might be handy if you expose settings of the styles in Atom?

Unfortunately no, by doing that the contrast text would overlay above the editor's text, resulting in a thin border around the text as the antialiasing may be render differently whether the text is white or black.
In the next version (namely abe33/atom-pigments) there's a setting for the type of markers (background, outline, underline or dots). But as long as there's no API in atom to decorate a part of the text so that one can change the text color at a specific place without creating an overlay I won't be able to use the decoration API.
