c80
c70

70 looks the most readable and therefore best imo.
100 does look lovley, but less readable.

I've made all the changes I'm planning on making to highlights for the next release:

  • Reduced default intensity of highlight colours when using dark colour schemes
  • Allow changing highlight colours, defining custom ones and assigning labels
  • Maintain file-specific lists of highlight colours/labels
  • Added shortcuts for assigning highlights (Ctrl+1,Ctrl+2,etc by default)

Please do open further issues if you still feel the need for the other changes once you've used the above for a little while.
