ls --color feature request: ordinary files uncoloured |

ls --color lists 'ordinary' files as white, for example
% ls --color foo | od -t a
0000000 esc [ 0 m esc [ 0 m f o o esc [ 0 m nl
0000020 esc [ m
0000023
I think it would be better for plain files to not have any ANSI escape
sequences around them, and for colouring to apply only to directories,
*.gz and so on. Unless the user has explicitly requested something for
'all other files' in his dircolors list.
Shall I send a patch for this?
