I'm not dismissing your concern, but I did amend the doc string prior to pushing to state explicitly that it can be used for either foreground or background colours.

I didn't bother making separate functions since they would probably have been identical anyway, after studying the different cases. Hope that's all right, and if you can argue -- after having used it yourself in your own code -- that there is an important semantic distinction, then the code can be modified accordingly.
