(Hopefully) title says it all.
See attached screenshot of Octave-6.4.0's Preferences pane|Editor tab, where
the color for the current line in the Editor could still be user-selected.
As of 7.1.0 this option has disappeared and these days the current line has a
light gray background.  Too bad as on some of the monitors I use this
background color is hard to distinguish quickly.

Was this a deliberate action? If so, should I set "Item Group" to "Feature
request"?
