Description Tod Creasey CLA 2007-04-04 11:42:04 EDT 
On Windows at least the font selection dialog will allow us to select a font colour but the API does not allow us to access this colour.

As a result we need to use seperate preferences for font style and colour which can be confusing to the user when they see the color in the selection dialog.

See FontDialog.getRGB().
