Actually I think it's a screen-reader issue. Because: 1. First time I set background I need to press down arrow once to hear 'black'. 2. If I subsequently select 'modify' on that style and I go to the 'background' tab, I hear 'no fill mode set' or something like that BUT, clicking down arrow once now says 'light red'. So black is selected but the screen-reader is saying 'no fill mode set' because there are no list items that have positive focus until I move the bounce-bar (probably a square with pretty colours for you light-slaves).
