Hm... so the "common part" will be highlighted as blueish and the
"first difference" will stay just bold?  Does that look good?  IOW,
will the bold character be seen right next to a blue one?  Maybe we
should also change the default definition of the first-difference
face?

I'd actually expect this face to use the background, because that's
how other applications behave, and I thought this change was motivated
by that?

Also, what will this do to the output of the more aggressive
completion styles?

Right.
