>>>>> a situation where you have defined one of either the color or background-color in a given color, and a visitor's custom stylesheet defines the other in the same color.

I've never understood this reasoning.
Why would a user who needs to set colors for readability only set one of those two styles?
Are you saying a user may set the text color to be yellow, for example, on every web page - and not set the bg color of his choice?
