There may have been consensus against KColor, but when it comes to HSL there 
have been quite a few people that have expressed support, and only a couple 
against it.  Also, there have been no valid arguments against HSL from what I 
can see.

He has changed his proposal each time to suit the desires of a few people, and 
been treated very poorly in my opinion.  I am getting tired of you making 
claims of consensus where there are none.  I am getting tired of you and a 
couple others arguing against HSL inclusion without a valid technical 
argument.
