Status "unmaintained" is currently signalled with gray color, the same

This makes sense to me. Go for it.
We as users cannot change the colors, because these are defined as
classes ext-status-<extensionstatus>.
and are _not_ defined in
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template:Extension .
They're defined in
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-site.css
Can someone perform a global wikitext source search on
mediawiki on
which pages the string "ext-status-" is used ?
I don't think you need to worry about someone using
class="ext-status-unmaintained" elsewhere.
00 BF FF (DeepBlueSky) may be a suitable background
colour for
"unmaintained", see
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_colors#X11_color_names .
DeepSkyBlue is pretty cheery on my screen, would sir prefer something
in a decaying brown or green? I added ext-status-unmaintained to
Gadget-site.css and made it #8B4513 (SaddleBrown ). Whatever works.
BTW the template puts unmaintained extensions in Category:Not_LTS_ready .
