Why is is tortuous to say "use underline if supported, else try colour"?

If it inherits from underline, it will use either underline or bold,
so that's different yet again.

My suggestion would (I think) get the behaviour you initially wanted;
ie colour when underlining does not work. And a colour already
extensively used on MS-DOS, so it must be OK.

Otherwise let's just go back to how it was originally, with
indistinguishable buttons on the linux console.
