Then why isn't it good for the `diff-context' face?

Or more specifically, why is it only good for `diff-context' on color
terminals with more than 88 colors?  It should work just fine on gray-level
terminals and if the result is completely unreadable on terminals with less
than 88 colors, thenwhy shouldn't that problem also be fixed for the
`shadow' face?
