Fermatas can't be red #13

As it seems, fermatas can't be colored, not even outside of ligatures... Is this a problem or can we live with it?

Tinctoris used red signa congruentiae consistently in his treatises, so that's why they've been implemented. But the only fermatas throughout the treatises, in De punctis xviii.ex1, are black, and of course all the sources of practical music are as well. So we don't have any need for red fermatas. You're off the hook for this one!

Best, Jeff
