Just changing label.image to use SELECTPEN and SELECTTEXTPEN instead of FILLPEN and FILLTEXTPEN is probably likely to make some GUIs look inconsistent.

Edit: After a more thorough look the only gadget class that seems to use SELECTPEN by default instead of FILLPEN for highlighting is chooser.gadget and that is probably mainly because it's meant to look and work similar to a menu.

LABEL_MenuMode tag is now implemented in the latest beta version of label.image.

chris wrote: Excellent. Can you share the #define, as SDK updates are few and far between?

#define LABEL_MenuMode          (LABEL_Dummy+12)
    /* (BOOL) Use highlighting that fits in better visually in a
       menu. Defaults to FALSE. */
