Not really the desired behavior.

For plotting, the main issue is for copper layers:
They use currently more than one color:
* the color layer for tracks
* a specific color for vias, depending on the via type (through, or bind/buried)
* a specific color for through pads.

And using only one color for all items is perhaps not a good idea, because you 
remove important
information about pads/vias (just like when plotting in black and white)

So setting colors for plot must be rewritten to allows using different colors 
by layer, at least for
copper layers.
