Now I updated to the latest light-themes and I can confirm that the bug
has not been fixed.

When selecting an element in the panel (e.g. top-level of Application
menu) the text there has a grey/creamy colour - this colour does not
contrast well with the background colour.

The attached screen-shot illustrates the issue. 
To reproduce:
a)  select Applications in the top panel menu and select Accessories
b) observed design: 
at the place marked by 1. in the sceenshot one can see that the text colour is 
not white - as a result the contrast is not very good. 
at the place marked by 2. in the screenshot the text colour is white and the 
contrast is excellent. 

expected result: 
The text in selected items in the panel (e.g. menu) should be white when the 
items are selected. 

Additional observation: 
In all other menus (e.g. if you open Nautilus and you select items via the 
Nautilus-application-menu) the selected items use white text - so in addition 
the current situation is inconsistent with the rest of the design. 

The attached screenshot confirms the observation. 
Using the gimp colour picker I got the following results: 
 Colour of text "Application" in selected panel (top level) menu:
dfd8c8  (HTML notation)
Colour of text "Accessoiries" for the selected application item:
ffffff  (HTML notation) for white colour

This confirms the inconsistent use of the text colour for selected items. 
Please let me know if you need further explanations.
