I can't reproduce that, starting with an empty $HOME/.leo and creating mySettingsLeo.leo and copying in dark theme 0 and Ctrl-B on the "source & stylesheet" node does not remove menu highlighting for me.

I think for style type things that should be possible, it sets the new style on the fly now, but it can get re-set to the version it found at load time later on in that session. It should be possible to push the new value back into the runtime settings db. This isn't the case for a lot of other settings stuff, as Edward says it gets copied into various runtime places.
