I guess the footer consistency is important for the fandom brand, but not for the wikis it appears on...it should definitely be toggle-able to at least white, black, or gray because it's certainly breaking the consistency of many wikis and really just looks bad on any wiki that doesn't have a gray theme. But sounds like that'll never happen, oh well. I'll just hide it now.
