Yep. Guess I'll have to do that.
I reckon the reason why "transparency" and "white" are already options is because providing them ensures that folks don't have to make it a two- or three-step process to get layers of that color. Foreground/background are useful for conveniently applying arbitrary colors, but black really is just as fundamental as transparent/white. Even if black happens to be foreground/background, the user still has to glance over and see which one it is at that moment. Better if they can just pick black.
