The point here is: the non-printing characters are already set to light blue
in 4.3 . Someone already did that
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/4.3#Light_Blue_for_Non-printing_characters

LibreOffice is NOT a democracy so setting up a vote for another colour won't
have any results unless someone actually codes it. But coding another colour
without consulting or the agreement of the developer who introduced the
change would be a very BAD attitude...

Unless we can convince the author that light blue is not a good option it
WILL be set to light blue on the next version.

Personally I would prefer to have an OPTION, than to have some other
hard-coded colour. 

Just my 2 cents.
