Do you mean when it's faded out or when it's faded up?

The options are "practically white" (when you've clicked on something else) and "extremely pale gray" (when you've clicked inside that parameter).

I hate them both.

I think this is from an old version of the template dialog. Template parameter descriptions are now black for existing fields, and #555 in the search list.

Could anybody point out in a screenshot what's meant by parameter descriptions? The dialog has several minor issues, I've tried to catch some of them:
