This is not a Gecko bug. It works in edge because:

@media screen and (-ms-high-contrast: active) {
  .monaco-editor.vs .selected-text, .monaco-editor.vs-dark .selected-text {
    background-color: highlight !important;
  }
}

If they used (forced-colors: active) instead, it'd work. It doesn't work in Chrome either.

So, we could:

  • Support -ms-high-contrast as an alias of forced-colors.
  • Close this bug as INVALID.
  • Move to the webcompat component and contact Microsoft to get their editor updated to use forced-colors instead of -ms-high-contrast.

Given Chrome doesn't support -ms-high-contrast either, I don't think we should do (1)...

Leaving a ni for myself to send an email to our mailing list.
