For this you (also) need to customize the "region" face which is
the "[b]asic face for highlighting the region".
Secondly, after I exit from emacs, I get a string of these
warnings,
(emacs:11710): Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading theme icon 'document-new'
for stock: Icon 'document-new' not present in theme Adwaita
(emacs:11710): Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading theme icon 'document-open'
for stock: Icon 'document-open' not present in theme Adwaita
etc. What is this telling me? What can I do to fix it?
M-x report-emacs-bug RET
You might be able to fix it in your configuration, but it's also
likely that Emacs's window management code is making an invalid
assumption that had best be fixed.
One way to avoid seeing the annoying messages is to start Emacs
from the GUI rather than from a terminal emulator.
