The definitions above define wiki style names as text colors, but not
as background colors.

This works:
  %myblued%This text should be my dark blue, "myblued"%%

to define a background color do something like
  $WikiStyle['myblued']['background-color']='#2b596a';

Then you can use:
  %bgmyblued white% this text should be white on my dark blue, "bgmyblued"%%

Note this is a different wiki style name! If you use the same name
you get same color text as the background, which nobody can read!

Using %color=name% or %bgcolor=name% only works if 'name' is a color
keyword, defined for instance like in my comment about $SVGColors
