OK, that's looking better. I just found a couple of smaller issue this time:

- Why can't I select a foreground colour unless I select a non-white
background? That seems inconvenient and unnecessary

- If I set a foreground and background colour, and then later set the
background to a new colour and the foreground to "no colour", the
background change takes effect immediately, but the foreground change
requires a refresh (changing to a different foreground colour seems to work
fine though).
