Ah, I see. While digging in the TOS 4 VDI sources, I got the impression that they're global too (stored in the Line A table). It would make a lot more sense if they're not global though..

That's a matter of definition. It will look like crap if you're using 256 colour icons, 256 colour textures or a 256 colour background.
