Given that the framework requires colors in string format in its style APIs, I think it should provide some way to convert colors to strings as expected by these APIs. Otherwise, clients are forced to implement this bridging logic on their own, due to a framework
gap.<br>
<br>
And given that Color already parses these string representations, I think it makes sense for it to provide the inverse conversion.<br>

I think this is too niche to have Color provide.<br>
<br>
Just make a utility method for whatever format you desire, instead of <br>
making Color responsible for half a dozen ways of formatting colors, and <br>
then probably still missing some format that someone needs.<br>
<br>
Ticket should be closed as won't fix.<br>
