I have a table, that's not a problem.
The SVG standard defines 147 named colours: http://www.december.com/html/spec/colorsvg.html
I thought it would be a nice programmer convenience to have NSColor return these colours using the same naming convention that it already uses for its built-in colours, e.g. +[NSColor lightskyblueColor]; and in the sRGB colour space (and note, there's an SVG colour called "linen"). As soon as you go adding prefixes of any kind that convenience somewhat evaporates. However, since in reality my use for these comes from parsing SVG, it invariably ends up using the table lookup anyway and these methods are unused. So for now, simply dropping them out of my category altogether is a simple solution.
But yeah, namespaces would be a very nice addition to Objective-C.
