This is NOT new. Displaying messages with the signature lines in gray has been a feature for a very long time. This is done to warn you that, when you reply, the signature lines will be automatically stripped away. Look at bug #58406 (now implemented) comment #34 at <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58406#c34>, where this was mentioned eight years ago. At least now, with bug #58406 finally implemented, this is optional for E-mail messages. However, RFC 3676 requires this for newsgroup messages. If Mozilla is to maintain its claim to be compliant with standards and conventions, you can rid newsgroup messages of this feature by submitting a new RFC to eliminate that requirement. -- David E.
