Of course, this is a good thing, my point is that it may be better.
I don't like to have stippled black-white background on color monitors.

Why not to have one "if (Pdepth < 2)" when defining colorset 0 or any
unused/deleted colorset? The default for normal depths could be as it is
now, 4 colors: black on rgb:be/be/be and its shadow/hilight.
