That generally sounds reasonable to me.
When I change the accent color in KDE Plasma on Debian testing, the border for
the active cell in Calc changes accordingly (tested using the qt6 VCL plugin on
Linux), but changing the accent color on Windows has no effect, the border
remains blue.
So it would indeed be interesting whether using the system accent color would
be sufficient or there would still a need to manually set another color.
(Against which I'd personally have no objections if that's needed.)
Related commit also mentioning that the accent color isn't effectively taken
into account yet on Windows, with a link that might be useful when considering
to implement it:

These sound like issues that should be investigated/fixed, so are likely worth
reporting as separate bugs.
