Indeed, Jae-Joon is correct. I now see why Nicolas's code did not work.
The assignment of _AXINFO occurred after the initial creation of the axes
panels. While the code does reuse the _AXINFO data for some things in later
redraws, it does not re-use the color information. I should also point out
that changing the _AXINFO data has the side affect of being applicable to
all future instantiations of 3D axes within that process run. That could be
a bug or a feature, but it is something to be aware of in the future.
