Discovered while testing MC-269435.
The bug
The black box which is displayed around messages such as "Preparing for world creation" and "Saving world" does not appear to be retexturable.
I had initially assumed, due to the black center and white border, that this used either the text_field or text_field_highlighted widget textures, but changing these via resource pack has no effect on it.
How to reproduce
Download and apply the attached resource pack
Enter a world
Expected results
The box shown behind text would look different, just like how the one at the top of the world list looks.
Actual results
It remains completely unchanged.
How to fix
Instead of pointing this to the text field texture, it may be better to use a different, dedicated texture for this instead, since it isn't an editable text box.
