Your suggestion above is extremely convoluted when there is really a very simple solution.
I'm not concerned about other sports, so my answer applies only to basketball.

It's really not convoluted. Every team has two jerseys. There's no reason to not allow them to wear their dark jersey when it contrasts with the other team's jersey.
It doesn't bother me for basketball because it's been that way forever. In soccer, otoh, they're bucking with the tradition of the game for no good reason.
