Comment (by jdreimann):

 I responded to this via email before, but I believe that email was never
 delivered to the mailing list.. Anyway, here goes:

 Good suggestion.

 Colours are fine, even green and red, as long as they can be
 differentiated by saturation alone. To test that, take a screenshot and
 convert it to greyscale.
 (We're already meeting the first condition of the colours not conveying
 important information, it can be understood without colours).

Maybe we could just keep both light gray and add strike through effect
on top of old value . I mean , there are further options we can
consider , but in the end the main goal is to make values more
prominent in the UI

Yes, I like that idea. Can we have colours checked for suitability for 
those who are colour blind?

This is just a suggestion . I look for feedback in order to make
ticket changes more readable . In fact the most critical case is about
summary field which tends to be much longer that the others .

New description:

 Users that review ticket feed quite often find it a bit hard to
 distinguish values among ticket change text . For instance compare the two
 screenshots shown below

 [[Image(bh_theme_x_97_ticket_chg_highlight_current.png)]]

 Image above illustrates what it looks like nowadays . Notice that it's
 necessary to focus so as to delimit the text for ticket values and figure
 out what it is about (i.e. remove vs add).

 [[Image(bh_theme_x_98_ticket_chg_highlight_new.png)]]

 Image above illustrates suggest a new change . Notice that highlighting
 makes it easier now to delimit the boundaries of field values and the
 purpose (i.e. remove vs add). Background colors are similar to those used
 in diff view , but lighter .
