Sure, let's do that.

A summary for the UX team:

1. Math supports a set of HTML/CSS colors as commands, among which the two
"aqua/cyan" and "fuchsia/magenta" pairs.  The two names in each pair are
synonyms and corresponds to the same color.
2. All color names can be used in commands, but only some are shown in UI (and
thus need translations).  In 7.0 and earlier, only "cyan" and "magenta" are
shown in UI.
3. A recent change in master changed these two UI strings to "aqua" and
"fuchsia", to be consistent with MathML standard.  "Cyan" and "magenta" are no
longer shown.   However, these two words are not previously used in LibreOffice
UI, except one instance in LibreLogo commands, where "aqua/cyan" and
"fuchsia/magenta" are listed together as synonyms (and maybe another instance
in the HTML pallette, but the strings there are not localized).

Should the Math UI keep the change to adhere to MathML standards, or revert
back to reduce confusion for users and translators?
