As a manufacture, anything is quite "possible" (with the limitation of price). The color choices would indeed be the same - If it were to had happen.
I have only been with the company since late October of 2011. Since then, I do chime in on a lot of upcoming products, of course, with the help of the community.
Hopefully I've explained to you a little bit more in detail of why we thought it was "illogical" - not in a sense that it doesn't look good - but the band-aid approach.
