Are you referring to x11-color, or normal colors?  If it's x11, I really 
don't think it's worth keeping them in the docs at all.  If you're 
curious though, search the mailist archives.  Trevor Baca made a .ly 
file that demonstrates them all; I think this was approximately two 
years ago.

Of course this is possible!  Please add a snippet to LSR... although I'd 
recommend only doing this for color, not x11-color.
