Keep it bold; that works on both > black and white background. Whilst my preference aligns with yours in this particular case, we are now on a slippery slope, since these days terminal colors are infinitely configurable, and some heretics even choose backgrounds which are neither black nor white ;-) I don't want to trigger a long discussion or end up spamming the list with lots of different color scheme patches in an attempt to please everyone. So bold blue will be my last version of this patch.
