 Currently there is no way to escape a color in hexadecimal notation before
 printing it to a block of css or saving to the database. Many themes like
 to introduce functionality, whether it be core-supported or completely
 custom, to change the color of various parts of the templates. I believe
 that a function such as `esc_color()` would promote best practices while
 ensuring that unintended values do not get stored as colors and thus
 echoed in css blocks potentially breaking display.
