Hummm the teatsy fly agrees with you, it likes to sting black things ... including clothing.
Waterproof and cool don't usually go together. Think of temperatures over 100 F (or 30 C for the rest of us). For cool you want vents and lighter colours (kullors if you prefer  ) While light colours show the dirt, I think of that like some who have those bagdes to say where they have been.
And you can always wash it in the next storm

A separate rain suit.
If you have it on the outside ... fine until you fall off at which point you can damage the water proofness.
If you have it under the protective layer then the protective layer gets wet.
I think where you ware it depends on the probability of falling, mud means you will probably fall so you want the protection on the outside... where it will get filthy.
