 This appears to be no problem in Windows, as some kind of color mapping is 
 applied if you change the console colors of the cmd.exe.

+This issue might be partially solvable by introducing a "pseudo" 
+color as the initial foreground and background color.
+If you "get" this color, a "position and attribute save" escape code 
+( ESC 7 ) could be send out, and if the color is set back to the 
+pseudo color, the original color could be reverted using a "position 
+and attribute restore" escape sequence ( ESC 8 ).
+Maybe this is the closest you can get on Linux?
