Oh, I'd attribute this to my tendency to sometimes express things too
verbosely.

I wasn't thinking of that, but you're right. It's not possible to create
white (as in #ffffff) iemguis dynamically. If one needs white, one needs
to set the color by message. But still when you save it in the patch, it
won't be white on the next patch load.
