If we wanted to be really anal about that, since American is supposed to =
be=20
the default, and we're i18ning everything, the default should be "color"=20
anyway, with "colour" in the British translation.

Anyway, no, don't worry, save your energy for some better argument, I'm n=
ot=20
actually suggesting this.  I'm just teasing you.

I haven't even begun to look at that, and I probably won't before next we=
ek at=20
the earliest, but it's been in the back of my mind for awhile.  I don't=20
really know what I'd come up with, were I to implement that, but I'd be=20
generally aiming at something low key and unobtrusive.

Well, I mean both, actually, but the idea was that changing the notation =
color=20
would be a much easier thing to do first.

That's a good idea, actually.  If I stop looking at it, maybe I'll stop b=

tempted to waste time fooling with it at all.  Plenty of better things to=
 do. =20
