It's higher than that, but note that color blindness is only one reason 
we don't use color to differentiate between bug statuses by default.

Agreed, which is why we alternate background colors in bug lists to 
differentiate between consecutive bug rows.  I'm open to other uses of 
color, but I don't find mantis's implementation

compelling.
