I understand your viewpoint, Ihor. Actually, it was mainly the font size of the TODO keyword that I wanted to retain, not the colour. The org-agenda-dimmed-todo-face overlay overrides the size set in org-todo face, which breaks my layout. I would like to retain the org-todo face colour as well, but it is mainly the face size that causes me issues. I have been fiddling with the face and overlay rules, but my knowledge is not up to the task. From what I can tell, overlays always overwrite faces. I was thinking that a version of org-font-lock-add-priority-faces could perhaps be adapted to work with todo keywords.
