Comment(by mpatel):
Possibilities:
* CSS3 / SVG colors [http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-color/#svg-color
alphabetically] or
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_colors#X11_color_names by hue] - About
110.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X11_color_names X11 colors] - About 500.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_colors Wikipedia's list].
We can make these available as in the comment above. In effect:
{{{
sage.plot.colors.colors['aliceblue'] = (240.0/255.0, 248.0/255.0,
255.0/255.0)
sage.plot.colors.aliceblue = Color(sage.plot.colors.colors['aliceblue'])
}}}
Should we define just the official CSS3 / SVG colors? The X11 colors
include four shades for about 75 colors (e.g., `goldenrod1`, `goldenrod2`,
`goldenrod3`, and `goldenrod4`), as well as 100 shades of `gray`/`grey`
(from black to white). They may be convenient. Or we could suggest using
`.lighter()` and `.darker()` (cf. #5602).
