How about this as a possible solution... If Debian configures the
terminal
emulators it ships to use dark background, why not configure the ip(8)
utility
the same way, i.e. by setting COLORFGBG in files placed in the
/etc/profile.d
directory, which would also be shipped by Debian?
That wouldn't be a perfect solution, of course, but would be more
consistent.
Debian ships terminal emulators configured one way, so the ip(8) should
also
be shipped configured (mind you, not patched) the same way.
