I rather like the mixedCase style for compound nouns.
Readability is more important than type-ability, to my mind, since
the code gets read much more than it gets written.

Using 'colFac' instead of 'colFactor' seems like a reasonable
abbreviation that doesn't lose too much if we know we are talking
about colors.
