I've only had two sectors on the 789 thus far and the auto shades could not be over ruled. Ghastly. I am trying to fnd out if VS are making a habit of this. The trip was my usua; LHR/JNB run earlier this year and it was HIGHLY annoying to have the real world outside filtered into blue and other colours beyond my control. If VS persist in this, then their 787 is off my list.
