Surely, we at least have control over our own CSS. At http://hg.python.org/cpython/static/style-paper.css there are two lines that control the alternating bars: .parity0 { background-color: #f0f0f0; } .parity1 { background-color: white; } One of those could be changed to match the other so that we at can at least get a solid background.

It also applies to the changelog and therefore would make the changelog uglier (you had already asked me to make that change and I reverted it after I tried it). The changelog is, IMHO, a bit more important than the source viewer.

Impacting only the source viewer looks like it would require a patch to the generation logic, although I could be mistaken.
