I think it makes sense to use a special code for rubber, and 256 sounds
like a good choice.

Let's see. In LDraw, if dithered color K is constructed out of solid
colors I and J as 256 + I * 16 + J, I believe the edge-color of K will be
the edge-color of J. This makes sense -- LDraw has a 16-entry array of
edge-colors, and to get an edge-color for any color value, just mask off
everything but the low bits -- EdgeColor(ColorValue bit-and 15).
I like L3Lab's option to show all edges as black. And LDLite's COLOR
command allows you to specify any defined color as the edge-color (for the
color being defined).
