can I set a tag with no color?
I'm not sure if this was changed in a recent version or something, but I noticed that one of my tags which used to be colorless (that is, things tagged didn't necessarily take on a different color) are now black. Was the ability to have "uncolored" tags removed in a recent update? I have a certain tag (or rather group of tags) that gets applied, based on the source of the spam score, to almost every message I receive, and while I realize that this may not seem particularly useful (tags are most often used to differentiate messages, but everything gets "scored by plugin"), it works for me. Or at least, it did until whatever happened to cause the tags to all go black. Is there a way to clear the color on my tags? I tried setting it to white, but, well, take a look at my screenshot to see how that went. ("contrast? What's that?"~Thunderbird UI designer implementing tag colors)

As your background is white, I'm assuming your font colour is black. So setting the tag as black, would only do a reverse of colour when an email with that specific tag is selected, which also helps to know what you are focused on. Otherwise, all would have a black font on white background and not really appear any different.
I suppose it could be done by accessing the 'prefs.js' file to get the stored name of the tag and then creating a 'userChrome.css' file with code to force the background to remain white when selected. How many tags are you talking about and would this be something you would be interested in? I can offer a lot of help and code etc.
I've deliberately changed the colour of the background for any email in thread pane that is selected. So whilst all tags show their designated colour when not selected, they do not show it when selected, only the standard default I set is used. After all when a tagged email is selected, the information is displayed in the header anyway. It just stops the multicoloured swapshop appearance. I like it that way, but it's not for everyone.

My point here is that I don't want this group of tags to affect the color of the font/background of the message listing at all (because these tags are "technical" and only exist to be used by further filtering). It used to be possible for tags to have no color, but then something changed. Perhaps no one else used colorless tags so the option was removed? I suppose it doesn't matter now... I'll have to think about that offer concerning messing with the JS and CSS. It's tempting, at least if not too complicated a "hack", [strike]but I'm not sure if it would be worth the effort. It's also kind of disappointing that it even requires a roundabout solution, considering it was working fine before whatever recent update did this to me. edit: reread your explanation of how to force the change I want. That sounds easy enough; please elaborate. Side note: how do I strikethrough text on here? Is that supported? There only seems to be buttons for bold, italics, and links, and I couldn't find anything about formatting in the meta-support KB known as "contributor support"
