広辞苑 also describes this as

and has an example
声色で高座を叩く能天気
The insolence to impersonate one's superiors.
(comment)	I think the "thoughtless" and "insolent" meanings are perhaps older meanings of the word, and the generally used definition nowadays is optimistic. Feel free to get rid of the second two if you like.
