If you had a problem with the link to Special:Contributions, then you would have had this problem when Discussions fully rolls out anyway, since that has a link in the profile masthead.


 * In addition, due to the shared link, unique fonts or colors applied to administrators also applies to the link

Not the way we have it on Acepedia; we only customize the links to user pages and message walls, not Special:Contributions. Plus, the profile masthead link already has a stated color through CSS, which means that you'd have to use "!important" to override it, which is a bad practice anyway.
