Thank you, I pulled the latest changeset and built Octave to try it out. It seems to work as I hoped it would.

I set the current highlighted line to a pale grey which works fine for me, I'm not sure how it would pan out for those with poor eyesight if it was set automatically to a low contrast hue without an option to override it.

Thank you for the bug report. I have pushed
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/31a12af0aaaf
to default where the margin colors are updated depending on the current background color. Since the background color is lexer dependant, the margin color would have to be separately configurable for each lexer.

I am wondering whether the colors of the highlighted current line and the long line marker should be automatically set in a similar way.

There is currently no apparent way to customize the colour of the gutter. When using an editor style with a dark background and bright text the gutter has a bright background and dark text which is an eyesore.
