Whenever the terminal text color is darker than the background color:

fish> set fish_color_comment white
fish> echo fish_color_comment
white
fish> # Comments appear in normal color

I'm sure this was intended to ensure that the user can always read the
text.  But 'white' actually appears grey in all terminals I have used
(Xterm, gnome-terminal, Putty), and text is legible.  I want my
completion descriptions and comments grey, on white background.  It is
also legible on grey background (I checked).  By contrast, the default
comment color, brown (yellow), is not legible on grey.

Perhaps this is a reason to rename 'white' to 'grey'.
