Changing the font colour in IDEA code-completion window

Question

I was wondering, how do I change the font colour in the code-completion window in IntelliJ IDEA? The default font is grey and, despite changing almost every font colour in the application settings, I am stuck with grey (which is very hard to read).

I'm talking about this window:

Does anyone know how to change this statement-completion font colour to black?

Thanks.

Enable the Insert selected variant by typing dot, space, etc. option to get the old behavior.

Check this discussion for more details:

The purpose is to disable selection by dot/space/etc by default and to be able to distinguish this mode visually.

...

If you love dots and spaces, you can return to the old mode via Settings | Editor | Code completion.

There seems to be a need to distinguish the modes because you might want to choose a non-first item, or to choose the first one by typing some non-orthodox symbol (e.g. exclamation mark). In this case, you press Up/Down to navigate in the list and after that there seems to be no reason for space or exclamation mark not to select the current item. Having two modes which behave differently but look exactly the same doesn't seem like a great idea to me from the perspective of user interaction design.
