Hi,

setting the colour in \processisolatedwords doesn't always work.

\defineframed
  [myframe]
  [foregroundstyle=italic,
   foregroundcolor=blue]

\def\mycmd{\blue}

\starttext
  %% frame works
  \myframe{foo bar}

  %% colour works
  \processisolatedwords{foo bar}\mycmd

  %% style is applied, colour is ignored
  \processisolatedwords{foo bar}\myframe
\stoptext

Why is the style applied but not the colour?
