this was supported by Bester saying earlier in the season that he had assumed Sheridan to be more friendly towards the Corps
Even with this assumption, this line of Bester's still makes no sense whatsoever, because Sheridan was nothing but cooperative with him in that episode. Either there was a missing scene in A race through dark places where Sheridan suddenly did something non-cooperative, or this was really clumsy way of signalling to the audience that Sheridan (still a relatively new character) isn't going to be a tool but will be as hostile as Sinclair was to the corps from now onwards.
I can't remember what I thought the Psi Corps uniform meant, just that it was in intriguing image. Sheridan's interpretation as foreshadowing his alliance with Bester later worked for me; what didn't work was the "man in between", which is why I really like the alternative londonkds suggests below.
