Geologist: Headings and titles barely visible in the editor, wrong font color being applied

[jp-imagines]

Quick summary

On at least a couple of the Geologist theme's default styles, headings appear as dark gray on a dark gray background in the editor, making them nearly invisible and difficult to edit. On the live site, headings use a different font color and are clearly legible.

Steps to reproduce

1. Activate the Geologist theme. (In screenshots below, I'm using the second style preset, "Charcoal." A similar issue occurs with the "Default" preset as well.)
2. Open the editor for a post or page – both the post/page editor or the Site Editor should be affected.
3. View the post/page's title. Note its color.
4. Add a Heading block. Note its color as well.
5. Preview the post/page. Note the title and heading colors.

What you expected to happen

Title & heading color in the editor should match what is seen on the live site. Titles and headings should be legible in the editor.

What actually happened

In the editor, titles and headings use a different font color, and can be very difficult (or nearly impossible) to read.

I can't reproduce this anymore, might have been due to an editor issue that got fixed in the meantime. I will be closing this one, but feel free to reopen if I missed something, or it pops up again.
