The default vi mode prompt is kind of ugly, mostly because we include this `[I]` with a super bright green background and white text, which is particularly grating because most prompts don't actually have a background. So we get a ton of people asking "How do I remove this [I]" when they could really benefit from having the mode shown. There's a few ways to make this look nicer, the simplest is to just keep the same colors but use them as foreground instead of background colors, which looks much more understated. The mode prompt is important, but not more than the actual contents of the commandline, so it shouldn't have ALARMING colors.
