Note that while with Google's (CBDT/CBLC) and Apple's (sbix) color font
formats the red source will be ignored, with the Microsoft (COLR/CPAL) and
Adobe's (SVG/CPAL) the font can have color imaging as well as using the
current foreground color.  So, the glyph image won't be just a source
either.  It will be a mix of source and mask...  Right now those two
formats are not implemented in FreeType though.
