Just to calm any concerns over this request, I will explain further my idea.
A color information input will only plug-ins that use it, not the default
pre-bundled features, unless their developers decide to do so.

I do not know if LanguageTool or other plug-ins will implement this like I am
envisioning it, but, the color extension should only be applied to extra
information. That means, for rules that are set as inactive by default (because
they controversial or they were not designed to be 100% accurate) or for rules
that can be ignored by the user a significant amount of times. 
A consequence of this is that a user, that does not perceive the new colors,
will not lose information. He will just be unable to see the new
underlines/information.


*OFFTOPIC*

@Heiko Tietze
I would think about a different solution for users with any degree of color
differentiation impairment. 

Create an option in accessibility settings that presets the color and style of
the underline when a spelling or grammar error is detected. For example, having
a red underline with a dot-line-dot pattern, or other already existing border
pattern. 
Notice that this is a totally different enhancement request (that someone else
may report). This would fix the already existing problems with this type of
impairment as well as cover all the remaining color blindness situations
(Protanopia, Tritanopes).
