I thought of calculating the perceived brightness of a color using the
well-known formula 0.299*R + 0.587*G + 0.114*B (used for converting color to
grayscale) and let the user specify a brightness limit in the range. (In a
range from 1 to 10 for example.)

This way the RGB values can be limited automatically to avoid the colors
getting too bright and unreadable. The background color of the viewer is
white (=maximum brightness) so I think this will work well. I have to
implement it and try it out for real, though.

Anyway, I introduced the "ignore text colors" option in JPluck exactly to
counter this problem.
