[SOLVED] Yellow background highlight of an added/edited comment stays forever

When I submit a new comment or edit an existing one, its background becomes yellow and it won't go away unless I reload the page. If this is intended, the highlight should go away after a few seconds, probably using a css transition so that it'll look good (stackoverflow uses something like this when you open an answer link - just make sure the sstatic domain isn't blocked otherwise the effect won't work).

.ItemComment.Mine {
  -webkit-transition: background-color 5s;
  -moz-transition: background-color 5s;
  transition: background-color 5s;
}

var comment = ........;
comment.style.setProperty('background-color', 'transparent');

Alternatively the transition rules may be injected right into the element's css.

Vanilla, indeed.

Only appears when you edit an existing post.

Happened here because my GF userstyle didn't account for the dynamic background-color change.

The problem is solved.
