AFAIK it is safe, but you can also do that from within a skin.php file with 
less changes to your Pmwiki installation, like this:

<?php if(!defined('PmWiki')) exit();

## colors
$highlight1 = '#ccc';
$highlight2 = 'green';
$bodytxt = '#ff0000';
$headings = '#008400';

global $action, $HTMLStylesFmt;

if($action == highlight){
	$HTMLStylesFmt[body] = "body{color:$highlight}";
}else{
	$HTMLStylesFmt[body] = "body{color:$highlight}";
}

$HTMLStylesFmt[headers] = "h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
  color: $headings;
  background-color:$highlight1;}";
$HTMLStylesFmt[sidehead] = .sidehead{background-color:$highlight1};

?>

and you can use if/else and $action as a trigger to use different colors, so 
body{} can use $highlight1 or $highlight2 depending on the action  as shown 
above.

All the best.
