Description
Discovered in https://github.com/HaxeFlixel/flixel/pull/3413
it changes the format color, and not the color transform, which can cause confusion. Ideally, text.color should behave like sprite.color, and there should be a textColor that changes the font, or something

Research direction

Clarify the intended distinction between text.color and a possible textColor property before deciding what behavior and API would count as done.
