With this patch, the built-in color.py will support win32 directly.
There will be no need to have two separate extensions.

Not yet.  The most recent unstable nightlies do have the separate
extension mechanism I described yesterday.  With those installers, you
must explicitly enable w32color.py for win32 console coloring.

Also, I just discovered this method breaks custom UI classes, so I'm
tweaking it a bit.  I'll probably send a new patch 1 later today.
