Obviously the possibility to have a different coloured border
to text is a fairly basic requirement.

It appears that borderColor and textColor are both synonyms
for fourthColor; by, disingenuously, the Documentation doesn't
mention that boiderColor is a synonym for textColor directly.

Better get on the "blaster" to the good folks in Edinburgh pronto! "

And, having been downstairs to check the tortoise and bury the
vegetable compost in the garden it has occurred to me that the
reason why borderColor and textColor have not been separated is
for the same reason that the Preference palette does not bring up
a place to set the Label and the showName of a Graphic Object:

They never conceived of people wanting to use Graphic Objects
as fake buttons!

So, the WANTS LIST for RR 4.0.1:

1. Separate borderColor from textColor.

2. Sort out the Preferences palette so that LABEL and SHOWNAME
    are available for ALL objects.

[ Hey, here's a thought: Let's add to the WANTS LIST over the next few
weeks/months/years so that RunRev get so cheesed-off they go and
implement the things. ]
