On a this monitor, @colorGray15 is completely indistinguishable from white when used for the fill. It's crappy, yes, but also not unusual. The #eee is also hard to tell the difference, but better.

I recommend using @colorDisabledText for the label, and @colorGray15 for the fill.

    MediaWiki UI already has the current grays defined. According to
    current spec colour gray 12 (#ccc) is used for disabled text.

    @colorGray1: #111; // darkest
    @colorGray2: #222;
    @colorGray3: #333;
    @colorGray4: #444;
    @colorGray5: #555;

    @colorGray13: #DDD;
    @colorGray14: #EEE;

    @colorDisabledText: @colorGray12;

        The label being grayed out is important. The outline being
        closer to white also helps a lot, but as you said, when it's
        alone the outline change is not enough. I think the gray fill
        is still a little dark, maybe use #f5f5f5 if you can swing it,
        but B is getting close.

            I made a few of variations to compare. I think B works the
            best because it doesn't look like you can do anything
            about it. I greyed the text out, just like what happens to
            disabled buttons
            <http://tools.wmflabs.org/styleguide/desktop/section-2.html>.

            If A and C stood alone without the standard checkbox, they
            may not be as clear that they're disabled. Is there a
            reason we're using lightgrey instead of actual value?

                        This is what it looks like when the checkbox

                        surrounding .mw-ui-checkbox div is 50%
                        transparent.

                            checkbox doesn't look disabled to me:
                            
https://tools.wmflabs.org/styleguide/desktop/section-5.html

                            The normal convention for making a form
                            element disabled is to make it faded out
                            (<100% opacity), not giving it a gray fill.

                            I have no idea where this design came from
                            or who is responsible for it, but I was
                            wondering if the design team could revisit it.

                            Thanks!
