I agree. If "is a date" doesn't wrap, colors shouldn't either. This
returns false:
put "13/133/09" is a date
So for consistency, and to avoid confusion, "1000,1000,1000" shouldn't
be a color. I think that's what most people would expect.
Now, dates can also be single integers (they're considered seconds) so
single color integers could also be considered...um...whatever they're
considered.
