first why use another color? readability is probably best with black. you could 
as well give a textual hint.

if you really want it, do it. 
1. use something like "<html><body style="background-color:black"><span 
style="color:white">test</span></body><html>".
2. if you feel hackish add a WorkbenchFrame.setScaleText(String text,Color 
fg,Color bg) method that does that all the time
3. if you want the whole label background to be colored differently, set the 
bgcolor of the JLabel itself in the method mentioned in 2
