I concur. Part of the beauty and flexibility of LDraw is that you can model
with parts in colors that those parts don't come in. Once we start down the
road of having parts hard coded only in the color(s) they really exist in, we
limit our imagination, and end up with WAY too many part numbers to memorize.
