No, I don't like this option at all. This would just duplicate a lot of
API methods that would end up delegating to Color. And it would be much
worse to duplicate the color constants. This just doesn't seem like a
clean API approach.

Another option could be to mirror the `Color` API in both `Border` and
`Background`, like in the following examples:
Color.rgb(125, 100, 75)
Border.rgb(125, 100, 75)
Background.rgb(125, 100, 75)
Color.gray(127)
Border.gray(127)
Background.gray(127)
Color.web("orange", 0.5)
Border.web("orange", 0.5)
Background.web("orange", 0.5)
We could also mirror the named color constants, which would enable a
very compact syntax:
StackPane pane = new StackPane();
pane.setBorder(Border.RED);
pane.setBackground(Background.BLUE);
This is very similar to how "red" or "blue" are valid values for
"-fx-border" or "-fx-background" in CSS.
