Current behavior

It looks like highlighting of variables in the body takes the font lettering from the json formatting as opposed to changing it to white like everywhere else, making it difficult to read.

Variables in any other place:

Variables in the json body:

I guess the style needs some tweaking.

Steps to reproduce

Create a new REST request
Navigate to the body of the request
Select json
Place a variable in the value of any json property

Environment

Production

Version

Local
