I am very unhappy with the 8.X display of unread messages (bold and black). And with 8.0.2/8.5 it is even harder to change the css as it is hidden in a jar file.
In my humble opinion the display of unread messages should be a global setting in the user preferences.
Subject: Agree - let us easily control unread visibility.
Subject: notes.css
I could not agree more. Look at Firefox and how Personas and Stylish and Addons/Plugins have allowed users to tweak to their liking the standard browser.
Please, please, please allow colours and fonts to be easily changed by users ! I miss my red for unread and can’t face the hassle of having to unjar, edit the notes.css and re-jar.
