keep in mind that color handles sveral grouping cases:

{\somecolor whatever}

\color[somecolor]{whatever}

all use the same underlying mechanissm (and sometimes aftergroup to 
revert to the outer color; this may interfere when grouping is kind of 
unpredictable

in case of doubt: \color[name]{..} works best (explicit braces)
