Ok, I got it. To change the transaction entry placeholder text color:
/* transaction entry placeholder text color */
.gnc-class-lighter-grey-mix {
color: steelblue;
}
Thank you Adrien for your knowledge and input as well.
I also dug around in the wiki and found more info in the older gnucash 3
Damn, I did have the leading period! Mailman seems to be stripping it
out. Apologies.
So the class is properly ".register-secondary" for hopefully the final time.

Maybe try:
cursor entry {

The comments at the top of the sample CSS file from the Wiki define
'cursor entry' as an entity/node that affects the active cell. That
declaration should override everything else.

Thanks Adrien that is getting a little closer. Just leaving this here for
others.
1. I tried reordering but it had no effect.
2. Defining a color for 'register_cursor_fg_color' and
'register_cursor_color' didn't change anything.
3. '@define-color register_cursor_bg_color' is the same as background

I found this will change the input text color:

As for the header I'm not sure how you would completely remove that. I'm
assuming that would be in
/* register blank transaction placeholder text */

*.gnc-class-register-header {
background-color: #a8b8bf;
color: black;
}
You could make the text and background in the header the same color to hide
it.
