Also, maybe a flag to disable the effect of atom.color on maptext.

I get what you mean about maptext, though I'd consider that a separate request.

I'm posting a request for this, because I would find it helpful as well. :)
This might also line up more generally with an earlier request to allow overlays to get clear of the parent's color. Maptext can always be applied to an overlay.
LordAndrew resolved issue (Redundant)
This can now be achieved (as Lummox JR mentioned previously) by creating an overlay specifically for the maptext, then setting the overlay's appearance_flags to RESET_COLOR.
Maptext can always be applied to an overlay.

At which point it becomes a static, unchangable snapshot and generates appearance churn when changed.
