Fadeout Mip Maps option is useless for color textures, always fades to grey

Asset Import

-

When you specify that a texture should 'Fadeout Mip Maps' it makes the higher mipmaps become grey. This is great for detail maps where fading to grey means it stops being visible, but this seems to also be the only way to blend between mipmaps.

If you run the 'Scene' from the attached repro project, to the left you will notice the 'seams' between the mipmap levels if you look closely. If you look to the right, there will be no seams, but the texture is fading to grey. There should be an option to blend the mipmaps without having it fade to grey.

    It would be great to be able to set the colour.
    I have always wondered about the mip map solution to aliasing. Would fading to a colour represent an optimisation?
    Especially for projects using the Light Weight Render Profile, which don't need the same visual fidelity as normal & HWRP Unity projects.
