OK.  By synonym, I did not mean any word other than "bright"; in the
context of my response, "brightred", "bright red" and "bright-red"
would have been synonyms, but I think it is sufficient to support
only the first one.

Of course, somebody may come up with a bright idea to treat the
"bright" adjective just like "underline" and "bold" and that might
improve the end user experience slightly better, but I dunno ;-)
