Yes, I think the general idea in this discussion is to use a
`subdued' face, instead of an attention-getting face.

I've tried different fg colors, including mediumseagreen, slateblue4
and firebrick, and now I'm using saddlebrown.  But I haven't inverted
the meaning of the face, yet.  Maybe after inversion, some greyish
color might be suitable?
