I think all the effort put in making QGIS available for Window users shows everything but disregard for QGIS users on this OS. In addition, I think people should never forget that all the work developers put into the development of QGIS is a huge favor to us users, whether on Linux or Windows!.

Not exactly, but close. If you open the labeling tool, go to 'Data defined settings' tab. There you can define font, color, etc based on user-defined fields. But those fields must contain a color definition (RGB code I guess, but check), numbers if you want to use it to define the font size, etc. S
