FWIW, <rgbcol> was a bad choice (probably my fault) as "col" can be
easily mistaken to mean "color", not "column". It's not self-documenting
and not intuitive.
FWIW2, <sizecolumn> and <rgbcolumn> are a lot of letters strung
together and an "_" between the words would make them much more
readable. But I'm not concerned about this enough to ask for it to be
changed, and hopefully the instruction names will be buried beneath a
GUI layer before too long and only the GUI devels will have to worry
about it.

ps - I look forward to trying out the new features!
