Adding your desired colour won't get it rendered. If renderers want 
items to appear they write code for it.

The Smarties sweets picture best describes the outcome of your proposal.

That should give you a clue that your proposal is not a very good one.

That's because it doesn't require one. The desired colour for each 
entity is in the hands of the renderer, not the mapper. If you want 
different colours or other items to display you have to set up your own 
render.

I'm sorry, but you appear to a person desperately looking for a problem 
just to provide a solution.
