are you aware you can change all UI colours in JOSM in the
settings? I've for years been using a neon-green as that's
providing nice contrast on the aerial images in my area (and
also against the osm objects in standard style).<br>

wish it could be possible to view GPS tracks in magenta

People get lost in wilderness all the time [1]. And not only in
mountains, it could be a forest, jungles,
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<span id="result_box" class="short_text" lang="en"><span class="hps">swamp</span></span>,
etc. Sometimes they are stuck for days just couple of kilometres
from civilization. Often it is not possible just go to a certain
general direction, as it is necessary to know the way, which may be
not mapped yet, though the GPS track may well exist. <br>
<br>
A GPS track means that someone undeniably walked the route and
returned safely to upload this track.<br>
