That would be the best way to do it, yeah :)

Ok I looked at the e17 ones. Nearly all of them are of two
kinds: either setting a color that's already premul (usually opaque
white or transp black), or for defining some smart-class' color-set
callback.
Neither case needs anything done (color-set smart callbacks
would expect premul inputs). That leaves about 6 left I think.
Anyway... I think it might be best to let the edc format
stay as it is (non-premul colors), and have edje do the conversion,
not edje_cc. If desired, a later edje can have other types and/or
versions of 'design-formats', like edc, and one can do whatever..
There are possibilities for things that are very interesting with
premul colors, and having evas handle premul colors, as given, would
allow for that.
