I use dark backgrounds (and therefore a light coloured foreground colour).
As a consequence the new MatchParen highlight that is enabled
by default in vim 7 is unreadable/annoying.
I need to put the following in my ~/.vimrc to fix it:

highlight MatchParen ctermbg=blue guibg=blue

Shouldn't the above be done automatically when one does set bg=dark ?

This depends on the color scheme you are using. If the maintainer
does not update his color scheme, a default value is chosen. If the
background is darkcyan, the highlight is not visible, of course,
if the background is blue, then your value is a bad choice.

Best wishes,
Georg
