A guess a function that returns the closest color-name would be good enough.
What that's good for, I don't know.

I agree on the `#'.
But since few (if any) system really support more than 8bit per color, it
seems OK to use the #RRGGBB rather than the more verbose #RRRRGGGGBBBB.
After all, that's what people use in practice, in my experience.

Why would it need to be any different?
