Strange. That must be frustrating.

What have you tried besides a restart to get OF to fix the coloring? That is, have you tried perspective changes or the Cleanup command? If you're brave, you could try the 1.7 sneaky peeks and see if the problem still exists there. A new bug report filed against 1.7 might get more attention now. (I think you would have to upgrade both your machines to 1.7 if you decide to try that. Syncing of perspectives seems to have introduced some incompatibilities between 1.6.1 and 1.7 on the desktop. The iPhone app is fine.)
