88 was chosen because neither myself nor Dan Nicalaescu thought about
any values between 88 and 16 that Emacs bumps into on color displays.
I suggested to Dan that, since 88 colors seems to be enough to have
good approximations to all colors used by standard faces, to set the
breaking point at 88. If 64 is good enough for that, we should
probably change that to 64.
However, this sounds like a tip of an iceberg: are you saying that
list-display-colors will display a list whose length has no simple
relation to what display-color-cells returns? That sounds bad,
doesn't it?
