if the rgb.txt you ship WERE ALWAYS the builtin table no one will see
the difference, unless he ask you

yes, for example a debian mantainer has recently augmented rgb.txt
with the line
                          215 7 81 DebianRed

                                           hand doeth."  Matthew 6:3
