 When quoting, the username of the person quoted does not seem to follow the group color scenario. Has anyone else noticed?

 UPDATE

The quote color bug has been squashed, but there is a slight problem.

All new quotes from the time of the upgrade to 1.12 will have the correct user color as defined by the group color at the time of the post.

All quotes previous to that will have the wrong color. Why? Because once a quoted message is saved the color code (and user link for that matter) is saved in the database as part of the post. What was there will remain.

I consider it a bug, what if that user is deleted or changes username or their group color is changed. Since it's hardcoded any posts by them that were quoted would come out with the old user name, color... It probably should use userID, I'll fix it eventually but it's way down on the priority list.
