** [bugs:#810] Whiteboard DH: Colour mechanics broken**

Note
====

As the subject of his master's thesis, a student introduced several substantial 
enhancements to the Whiteboard. The Swamp Tramps split up the resulting patch 
and put all on a branch in Gerrit. For the sake of brevity, I'll call this 
enhanced and newly reintegrated Whiteboard "Whiteboard DH". You will see this 
name in some other places in the issue tracker, too.

Problem Description
===================

In Whiteboard DH, one cannot create objects with a colour other than black (if 
that's a colour). And the fill button doesn't cause objects to be drawn filled, 
either.

To reproduce
============

1. Choose a colour other than black.
+ Draw a rectangle. As long as you don't release the mouse button, the 
rectangle has the chosen colour. As soon as you release the button, the 
rectangle turns black.
+ Activate the fill button (inkpot).
+ Draw another rectangle. It isn't filled.

Insights
========

In the old Whiteboard colours worked like this: In a colour chooser you set 
foreground and background colour and new objects looked these colours up on 
creation. Now new objects are passed the colour in their constructors, but 
something goes wrong before or after this. An interesting point is that 
<code>LayoutElementRecord.getColor()</code> never enters the 
<code>if</code>-Block.
