We like this idea! Simply stripping out Flash-information would be
enough to give 4 types of cell the same colour instead of the usual
two. I happen to enjoy and utilize Bright more than Flash because it
doubles the amount of colours you get to use (and brightness and
darkness are useful tools in creating atmosphere). The ideal would be
a patch where you can selectively strip Bright- and Flash-information
on a per-room basis, giving an extreme amount of flexibility, but that
might be pushing it a bit.
