Comment (by afercia):

 The active item within the navigation menu is differentiated from the
 other ones only by means of color.

 Screenshot with colors and in monochromacy, to highlight the issue:

 This is not sufficient as persons with color perception impairments or low
 vision wouldn't be able to distinguish what the active item is. States
 can't be conveyed by color alone. There's the need of an additional
 ''shape''. See a similar, long-standing, issue for the admin menu though
 that relates to the focus + active state: #28599.
