Ah okay.
Yeah, it's an interesting idea. It's only applicable to RGB
colours.
What's a bit awkward, is it's not entirely clear where the
result of
the swizzle is assigned? Is the result of the swizzle assigned
to the
colours present in the order of appearance in the current
layout?
BGR8 a = Color.white;
BGR8 b = a.rbg;
is that: b=r, g=b, r=g, or is it r=r, g=b, b=g? Surely it's the
former, but that means you need to be conscious of the colour
layout whenever you perform a swizzle; ie, it will do different
things for different layouts...
Ahh yes, I didn't think of that. I think for the 99% of people
who are just using RGBA8 everywhere, it would still be valuable.
But if it didn't get in I wouldn't be too disappointed.
