Title:
  Allow only foreground or only background in color triggers

Status in Mudlet the MUD client:
  New

Bug description:
  Color triggers right now enforce a foreground *and* a background
  color. If the user changes their default Mudlet background color to a
  custom one, both triggers that only want the foreground color will
  fail, and it will be impossible to adjust them to the custom color as
  well.
