Text.RichText shouldn't ignore color property

Considering a Text element as such:

Text { id: textelement; color: "blue"; textFormat: Text.RichText; text: "<font color=\"green\">I</font> am <font color=\"green\">now</font> multicolored!" }

The "multicolored" portion is shown as black (probably auto color) and not blue, as one might read into. It seems incorrect to disregard the color when it could be applied to the non-colored portions of the text.
