Obviously the RGB card hardware will consult this flag and store its
state with the data written to the graphics, this extra information will
have to be stored somewhere else in memory and it has to be an area
because monochrome and color can be mixed, like you see in the
FLASHCARDS and the DHR.COLORS demos.
Isn't the high bit of each main/aux byte unused for graphic data?
Perhaps the four states of these two bits determine how the other
bits are displayed...
