Am I the only one that finds the new makefile-shell-face annoying? It is unnecessarily distracting with that "seashell1" background. IMHO it does not bring any useful visual information. In a Makefile lines that start with an whitespace are either commands (and now they are highlighted with the makefile-shell-face), or mistakes (i.e. lines that don't start with a tab) and makefile-space-face is great at showing those. IMHO the makefile-targets-face is also annoying. The fact that it using underlines is not great. IMHO the old setting was much better. Do we really need new faces introduced at this point in the release process? Again this is all IMHO, but I have a feeling that I might not be the only one that thinks like this. I apologize in advance if that turns out not to be the case. Thanks --dan
