They show in gray because they are not available, having no context assigned. The default style for blocked items uses gray text.

As I mentioned previously, Inbox and No Context items aren't affected by the view bar filters. I imagine this was done to help prevent items from falling through the cracks. If you disagree with the design decision, use Help->Send Feedback to make your voice heard.
