It's mostly cruft carried over from my reset-color-after-each-token
implementation. My severe distaste for global variables prevented me
from looking for the simpler solution.

I should be shot for my laziness and lack of ingenuity. Yeah,
verify_format() is a much better place to put the logic than
populate_value().
