Well, I didn't suggest to change it in the first place, so I really am
not the man to ask. I guess the idea is that diff context needs to be
readable after all.

Probably because, with more than 88 colors, the shadow face is more
readable than the current color on 16- and 8-color tty's.

Yes, those should need a separate definition, if we change the current
one.

It's not ``completely unreadable'', at least not in my opinion.
