Excellent! Thanks for letting us know.

We pass the foreground and background colours into librsvg, which
creates the bitmap image that's displayed, in a commit that's just a
few months old. It will appear in Emacs 28.

I don't expect the change to be included in Emacs 27 since it's a
fairly large change introducing a number of new features and any new
Emacs 27 releases will be primarily bug fixes.
