*sigh* Never mind. Self-answered. RTFM, right? In chart of accounts, right-click a parent account and select "Cascade Account Color". This could maybe be a little more intuitively implemented (perhaps just a simple check-box option to cascade the color down to sub-accounts when editing the color of any given account) but this current implementation works quite well in at least my current version on Windows once I found it.
