Conditional Color

I'd like to see the ability to pick the "Tint" attribute conditionally on all objects that have tint. Right now, the only way to do this is to create multiple objects and use conditionals on the "Opaque" value. It'd be much simpler, and result in smaller file sizes if we could conditionally choose color directly.

This is exactly what I want for my battery icons. I want to transition from green to yellow to red. Currently, I setup multiple layers, and set the opaqueness for each to a function of the battery level. Fortunately the system mixes colors when the top layer is semi transparent.

I'd much rather change the color directly as a function of battery level. Start at 00ff00, increase to ffff00 by 66% and then to ff0000 by 33%. This would give me a much better saturation than my current method.

This feature could be extended to cover all text and expressions too.

I'd like to see this happen for season of year, day or night, sunrise sunset and phase of the moon.
