I have gotten gotten this to work. Basically, I generated a png that had the areas of the image (a jpeg in this case) that contain the color to change as black pixels and all other areas as transparent pixels. Then I did an feComposite using the xor operator on the two images. Success! although only useful in very limited circumstances, this was a fun thing to figure out.
