Это не опечатка, LightGrey действительно пишется через "E", а DarkGray и Gray че

Could you have a blog entry on elaborating what was the motivation for such compatibility? So that someone could with push of a button convert HTML page to XBAP? If so, why couldn't you just let the converter handle the color conversion? What is your business justification for the added legacy conventions in a new platform?

Personally I'd say: Pull the legacy stuff out while you still can unless you have hell of a good reason to have it there. It might not bite now but surely it will later.

I should add a comment that there's some disagreement as to what scRGB stands for - I got "specular component RGB" from Joe Beda's article here: http://www.eightypercent.net/Archive/2003/10/23.html

However Ian Griffiths, author of the much-loved "Programming Windows Presentation Foundation" has it as "scene-referred RGB" and it turns out there are a few other non-authoritative references to that term on WL Search.

Unfortunately you won't find a definitive answer in the Windows SDK either...
