In JCS, at least, the same transparency color scheme is used for both tileset and level display, and that's definitely the simplest to program, but a black square certainly could be hacked in. That said, I think the best approach is consistency, since it's reassuring when the tiles you select look the same as the tiles you place. Also the Jazz purple is a pretty rare color as far as tileset design goes, whereas black... well...
