I think, you're right and I admit, that it was more for reason of
aesthetics then logic, that I implemented it that way: looks nicer to
get <.5,.5,.5> with 128, .75 with 192 ... I simply did not think about
it that deeply.
I will change that in the course of the next days and post a message
here, when it's done.
