If we did produce a fully internationalized, multi-namable color definition set,
we'd almost certainly include a 'default name' property for the colors.

So think of the data in ldconfig.ldr as the color definitions + the default

If anyone wants to work on a definition of a language file, with info like...

... that would be cool.

But I feel fairly strongly that international color-name-lists really belong in
the upcoming color database, not in the LDraw distribution.
