In the color animation you have to specify which color to change. There 
are times where you (as a modeller) just want to change one of the four 
components.

There you have to specify a property path, like the one I described.

Let me describe my concerns some more;
 From a developer standpoint it looks like you did a pretty good job, 
looking at the RFC (I probably need to read it a few more times to be 
sure, but it looks decent).

 From a user/modeler point of view, when working with the XML files I 
still do have my doubts if this is desirable. It is important to keep in 
mind that 99% of the XML files has to created by a human and therefore 
should be easily understandable by the *user*. Sometimes that means that 
the computer needs to work a little bit harder to make it easy for the user.
