A recent change in commit ccba737 modified the styling of the placeholder text (e.g. "Implement {feature}") in the input box of the CLI, changing it from non-italic to italic. I think this was likely unintentional. It results in a bad display appearance on some terminal emulators, and several users have complained about it. This change switches back to non-italic styling, restoring the older behavior.
