Hi, I'm from the Bugsquad team and we are triaging bugs on Konsole today.
Thanks for reporting the bug.

Application Version: 17.12.3
KDE Plasma Version: 5.12.6
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.44.0
Qt Version: 5.9.5

I took this steps to reproduce:

1- On Konsole configure the theme to "Solarized". (The dark solarized)
2- Launch python3 on Konsole.
3- Based on this test on SO (https://stackoverflow.com/a/39452138/6389248),
enter the code below.

> CRED = '\33[90m'
> CEND = '\33[0m'
> print(CRED + "HELLO" + CEND)

4- It should print an empty line.
5- Now configure Konsole to Breeze theme.
6- The message now should be seen.

7- On the same session on Breeze theme, update the CRED value. 
> CRED = '\33[30m'
> print(CRED + "HELLO" + CEND)

8- The new message is invisible on that theme.
9- Change to solarized theme and you'll see the message barely visible.

Conclusion

I can reproduce the bug but I think it's inevitable to happen on any theme,
i.e. grey characters on the same grey background will never be seen.

I'll change the status to INTENTIONAL because I think the behaviour of the
application is as expected.
