I would go for this option.
I’m not a fan of allowing RGB values in official part files, I’d rather keep it
to color codes.
However, if there could be a standard for texture mapping patterns & stickers
(and parts made by mixing multiple colors of plastic), that would solve this
dilemma -- simple patterns could be modeled with color codes, and advanced
patterns could be modeled with texture maps. But I’m just dreaming there...
