The '!' is actually pretty neat, since it allows you to blend colors. By
default, tikz blends colors with white, so
red!10
means mix 10% red with 90% white. This has the advantage that I can take
any color, say
\definecolor[mycolor][r=0.42,g=1.,b=0.2]
and lighten it 50% by just using
mycolor!50
I can also blend two colors together, using
colorA!50!colorB
I'm also pretty sure that context didn't always ignore the exclamation
mark. Is there a way to reverse this behaviour?
PS I've tried using spot colors in context, but that doesn't seem to
work:
\definespotcolor[mycolor][red][p=.1]
