Yes, definitely.
It occurs to me that at some point it might be useful to convert "color"
to unsigned short, so that you could have 64K of them --- but we'd still
need the error check anyway, and there's no reason to tackle such a
change today. (This possible change is, however, another reason to not
want pg_trgm looking directly at the internals of the data structure...)
