So at least we have the discussion started :)
I for one stand with Kai-Martin on the very low contrast between grid
and background. The dark colorscheme doesn't have this problem and has
higher contrast in general.
If eye strain due to background color is a concern then maybe contrast
can be increased only via darkening grid lines without changing the
background?

Title:
  gschem grid barely visible with lightbg theme

Status in GPL Electronic Design Automation tools:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  The grid lines of gschem are pretty low key with the current gschem-
  colormap-lightbg. This depends of course on the contrast and
  brightness settings of the monitor. However, grid lines are hardly
  visible on four of five TFT monitors I have access to, when settings
  are in default position. There is almost no difference visible between
  minor and major grid lines.

  Find attached a patch to the lightbg color profile for slightly more
  pronounced grid lines.
