I had this same problem... I found a tiny function of code that has proved
quite useful, and basically prevents
all but immortals from setting the { color tags.

The snippet uses lines like this:
if(*pointer == 'z') /* blinking */
{
*bufin = ' ';
}
to strip the characters after the { trigger, leaving a null color. So, in
reality, it's merely sending a false char
to the lope's code. I updated this snippet to ignore ALL mortal colors...
if(*pointer == '{')
{
*bufin = ' ';
pointer++;
bufin++;
*bufin = ' ';
}
Take a look at the snippet, it prevents rainbow titles and other headaches.
