Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 Replying to [comment:4 costdev]:
 > What if we changed the signature of `sanitize_hex_color()` to include an
 optional `$maybe_alpha` argument that defaults to `false`? That way,
 `$maybe_alpha` is only enabled by intent, and this should protect BC.

 I think that makes sense.
