Maintain the color information in jjPLAYER::name
 
In CTF mode, the jjPLAYER::name becomes identical to jjPLAYER::nameUnformatted, losing all color information. The color information is still stored somewhere, as the colored name is restored when you go to battle mode.

I would like jjPLAYER::name to maintain color information, or otherwise to get another way to access the hidden colored name string while I am in CTF mode. As things currently are, any mutator-induced name change occurring in CTF mode (such as adding a status to the name) completely destroys the color information that would otherwise be available in other modes. This is not ideal.

Version 6.4 unintentionally treated jjPLAYER::name consistently across gamemodes, but this had negative impacts on existing scripts that used name instead of nameUnformatted, which led people to run older versions of JJ2+ instead of editing their scripts. (Probably fixed here.) So it seems that

is not a solution that people will accept, and it would have to be a separate property.
