If you pick a color for your text from the text color drop-down (say, the one that appears dark green) with text highlighted, it properly wraps your highlighted text in a color tag with a "plain english" description.
Spaces added to force it to show the elements, rather than applying the tag...
Then, the font color tool shows your newly selected color. This makes me think that you can just click the "'A' with the color under it" to re-use that color.
Only when you do that, it wraps the highlighted text in a color tag that uses rgb.
Example: (This is *NOT* a code bit, this is me merely highlighting the text and clicking the 'A' now that it shows a dark green color.) ----- example selected text should be dark green between the dashes -----
As you can see, instead of COLOR="DarkGreen" in the tag, it shows COLOR="rgb(0,100,0)". And it apparently doesn't recognize that as a valid tag, because it doesn't actually APPLY the tag, it SHOWS the tag.
