TextInput selectionColor is opaque on Android, which makes text hard to read

[jahirfiquitiva]

Current behaviour

When selecting a text within a TextInput in android, the selectionColor is opaque (i.e. isn't partially transparent), which makes the text hard to read.

Expected behaviour

The selected text should be readable regardless of the selectionColor, even if it's a custom one.

How to reproduce?

Preview

What have you tried so far?

Passing a transparent color for selectionColor like selectionColor={"rgba(255, 255, 0, 0.2)"}
But then the cursorColor in android is the same as selectionColor even if a custom/specific cursorColor was set
