Right, it makes sense to support that too. I haven't used alpha formats
other than rgba(...) myself. Would it be useful for rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.5)
to turn into #ff000088, for instance?

That sounds like a good idea.

I'll address the comments from both of you in an update to the patch,
though it might be a while until I have the time to update it.

Thanks for your comments so far.
