Yeah, 5.2 patch 2. I must not have properly tested all combinations... or
realised that I need 2 textcolor clauses.

It looks like (A) the textcolor after the title determines its color and
(B) another textcolor anywhere else determines the color of the individual
series titles.

I guess this is intended and I just didn't read the docs properly?
