Untrue. Have a look at my testcase (input-fields.swf), you can clearly
see the devicefont-textfields get colored borders/backgrounds. The
testcase uses cxform for that! The only difference to the embedded
fonts is that they are always opaque.

Why do you think color has no effect?

My patch fixed all problems with the testcase.

Either there is some special case left that we have to take care of or
there is some misunderstanding..

Why don't you like the get_world_cxform override? IMHO that's the only
correct way to do (since cxform is *limited*) and we don't need to
rewrite any rendering code..
