I don't think "I opened foo.sieve in Emacs 20 twenty years ago, and
now I opened foo.sieve in Emacs 30 today, and the colors aren't identical, and now 
I'm mad"
is a good argument for never changing the defaults.

 From my POV, it _is_ a good argument.  Especially when the defaults
change in a feature that is easily customizable, and so basically you
are asking to impose your preferences, which are easily catered to by
your local customizations, on everyone else.

I agree that we shouldn't be changing defaults arbitrarily, but as I found when looking at the face definitions, we could make this change in a way where it just simplifies the job for theme authors but doesn't cause a noticeable change in most cases.

Does that sound ok? If not, then I think we can just close this.
