My concern with red/green is (and has been) about the psychological implications of "green = good, red = bad". Revisions are neither of those things: sometimes removing things is better. Sometimes adding things is bad.
Revisions are neutral things. I'd like us to try to find colors that support that principle.

Vibha and I tested these settings out and they work pretty well.
