I don't mind having 2, they just don't look good together over here, on
my screen and to my eyes...

Right now we have "plain old asciidoc look" which doesn't look that old
after all. You pointed out a deficiency, and I'm all for fixing it. I
just think that introducing new colors is something that may require a
ground up rethinking of the theme being used: make it informative but
unobtrusive. Also, I'm against over-emphasizing: use slanted or a
specific color, but not both. Unless one color means emphasizing and
slanted means file, for example.
