Feature Request: Add a custom error/warning background color

[OrEisenberg]

Guys, please don't take this the wrong way. I have many a fond memory of 36 hour code binges staring at your beautiful, beautiful themes. They have been my redemption in my darkest moments and my grace in those lightest. They have been with me through thick and thin. But if this error highlighting ahem "stuff" is to stay, without the option to disable, then I'm gonna have to put my precious color themes out of their miseries.

It would break my heart to kill something I love so dearly, but I know I have to be strong. Because true love means that you don't keep those you love around to provide you solace even though they are irrevocably broken. That would be selfish. Sometimes, if you love something, you have to let it go. I hope it doesn't come to that. I really do, because I do love your themes. But please, for the love of all that is right, happy, and true: fix this.

EDIT: If anyone wants a hacky workaround, just let me know -- I found one.

A new option is introduced in v6.3.6 that can customize the opacity of background colors.

@OrEisenberg I'd very much like to know.

Ok, I figured out one workaround, not sure if it's the same as OrEisenberg's but adding these few lines to settings.json will do the trick:

    "workbench.colorCustomizations": {
        "[Gruvbox Material Dark]": {
            "editorError.background": "#28282800",
            "editorWarning.background": "#28282800",
            "editorInfo.background": "#28282800",
        },
    },
