I'm not a big fan of pink - I think it would unnecessarily draw too
much attention to the discussion tab. From my experience on the wiki,
the Discussion tab doesn't get used much (using the mailing list is a
better solution in many cases). Here are two options I think could
work well:

* Having the text in italics (this could apply to the my talk page as
well) ... or ...
* A grayish tab with maroon/dark red text

Another improvement to distinguishability might be to make the text in
the currently active tab bold. What do you think about these?

Regards,
Ivan.
