What if 2 got color "blue", 1 got color "red" and 3 got color "green" and I
want to change color of all to "white"? Option dialogs with grayed fields
make mum's oldest angry like chief rain-in-face :-) (and the dialog would be
a useless feature. Why making it possible to edit multiple objects and then
limit it again)
I meant the current color is displayed 'greyed', but the user can still change
the color, and once the user assigns a new color it is shown in the normal way
(otherwise what color is displayed before the user making changes, blue, red,
or green? :))
