I came up with the same trick many years ago, although I only implemented the 
256 x 256 (two mode 8 screen) hi color display. The idea of mixing a mode 4 
with a mode 8 screen did not occur to me. I produced a demo disk including 
about 5 colorful images. It was sometime between 1990 and the end of 1993... I 
showed the result at the Bedford U.S. QL show to a few people but nobody seemed 
to care. That put an end to my hi color research on the QL...
