Agreed. In the "should I use color" function I proposed, there should be
a big fat "are_we_a_porcelain_that_will_allow_any_color_at_all" flag
at the top, which will make it totally clear how to make sure color is
off.

Sadly, this is an area that is not covered very well in the tests
(partially, I think, because it is "just" output which we tend to
neglect, and partially because the isatty() stuff is hard to test with
our harness). So I don't think it's _entirely_ Markus' fault.
