It does what it's supposed to do: makes the text barely visible. Then why isn't it good for the `diff-context' face? Or more specifically, why is it only good for `diff-context' on color terminals with more than 88 colors? It should work just fine on gray-level terminals and if the result is completely unreadable on terminals with less than 88 colors, thenwhy shouldn't that problem also be fixed for the `shadow' face?
