For a number of years, WordPress has been using a `#00a0d2` blue shade for the links `:hover` state. This blue shade doesn't have a sufficient color contrast with the various (too many) background colors used in the admin interface.
The new `#006799` blue shade is part of the official WordPress color palette and does have a sufficient color contrast with most of the admin backgrounds.
