Whatever happened with this patch?

IIRC I didn't review it, since I thought someone else was handling it,
and then it never went in... anyway I was recently thinking about RGB
support for styles, and I remembered it.

Do you have a copyright assignment?
If so I can review it and we can try again to get it in.
