What I said is not exclusive of that.  The use of color I put forth provides
another layer of information, but it's still possible to productively use the
widget without it.  It should always be kept in mind that a user may not be
able to see the color for whatever reason, but that's not a good reason not to
use color.  Just use common sense.

My point was that using colors is so natural to humans that children will do
it as play - if so, then there's no reason that adults shouldn't extend that
to make the colors do something useful.
