I wonder if this is possibly configuration on your setup. I tried the steps above but am not seeing the white text. I tried looking on the list view, detail view and under Journal entries and it all appears as shown below. Can you provide a screenshot of what you are seeing?

As the documentations specifies, the color names are lower case.
