Some colors where added to the UI, but actually all HTML colors are supported.

Fuchsia and aqua where originally implemented on CSS1, but in CSS3 synonyms
magenta and cyan where added. All the keywords still working.

I changed it to match mathml standars:

https://www.w3.org/TR/MathML3/chapter2.html#fund.color
Color values can also be specified as an html-color-name, one of the color-name
keywords defined in [HTML4] ("aqua", "black", "blue", "fuchsia", "gray",
"green", "lime", "maroon", "navy", "olive", "purple", "red", "silver", "teal",
"white", and "yellow"). Note that the color name keywords are not
case-sensitive, unlike most keywords in MathML attribute values, for
compatibility with CSS and HTML.

I have some work to do around starmath color this weekend because of something
I screw up. If you still think it has to be reverted mark the bug as new and
will apply.
