All the MediaWiki: pages linked to from Special:Allmessages have at least a default
value, there's no point in showing any of them as redlinks.
It is now impossible to see if a message exists in a localized revision
in the MediaWiki namespace which is identical to the default.
It makes it hardly difficult to recognize which messages have to be
deleted from MW namespace after commit of messages to the MessagesXx.php
file.
I see Tim has already reverted the change. I can see your point here,
but I still feel that this is, in principle, the wrong way to present
this information: those pages _do_ conceptually exist, even if they're
not stored in the database.
Perhaps maintenance/deleteDefaultMessages.php could be modified to
delete all messages that are identical to their defaults, or at least to
have an option to do so? It seems to me that would eliminate the need
for doing what you're currently using those link colors for.
