Bug#547537: syntax/rst.vim: emphasis highlighting looks horrible

Package: vim-runtime
Version: 2:7.2.245-2
Severity: normal

Syntax for rst (reStructuredText) *emphasis* is specified as:

	" TODO: I dunno...
	hi def      rstEmphasis             term=italic cterm=italic gui=italic

This has horrible results: with syntax on, it is shown with black
background; and you can't see where vim's visual mode selection begins
or ends, and the black looks horrible (it's also not **Strong**, it's
*emphasis*, italic, so why the completely black highlight?!)

I don't know if the TODO comment has anything to do with this. I use
this instead:

	hi def link rstEmphasis                     Special

Thanks!
