I've thought about this one suggestion
some more, and it makes sense actually.
A new question would then be:  should it be
eventually be possible to disable it using the
same GREP_COLORS capability as for SGR_END,
or should it have its own capability for that?
If the disable-capability is shared, I'll have
to rework some of patch #3644.
