I object italics.
I like the idea to use bold face, but in a slightly different way:
make the ">"s bold, regardless whether with or without any colour.
That way I could very easily find the new text inside of even large
quotations, which is sometimes not so easy.

Generally all the colour scemes up to now were fine with me.

Setting all the new text in bold face does not screw anything up AFAIK.
I could live with that version also.
