Yeah, I agree. For fast on the CPU you want to use simd, and 
maybe one register for red, another for green, using saturating 
instructions, doing it differently on ARM vs x86 etc...

Besides, an accurate reference implementation is a good starting 
point and also very useful for unit testing a faster 
batch-oriented version later on.

Nice start. Most libraries use US-English "color", though. I 
guess phobos should try to be internally consistent (pick either 
UK or US vocabulary).
