Description
It'd be nice to be able to get the current value of some of the graphics modes, aka something like
bool ofIsBlendingEnabled();
bool ofArePointSpritesEnabled();
bool ofIsAlphaBlendingEnabled();
bool ofIsSmoothingEnabled();
There could also be a function to get the current color which pulls from the default style ...
ofColor ofGetColor() {
return ofGetStyle().getColor();
}

Research direction
Locate the existing graphics-mode setters and the style implementation, including ofGetStyle().getColor(). Start by tracing how blending, point sprites, alpha blending, and smoothing state are stored. Done means callers can query those current values and the current default-style color through the requested getters.
