... users of for-each-ref format will be _more_ familiar with
formats used by for-each-ref, and it would make a lot more sense to
keep the syntactic resemblance between existing features to show
magic things in for-each-ref and the new feature to show color
(which is merely one new "magic" to the vocabulary in the context of
for-each-ref), no?
