When metapost is used inside ConTeXt, colors defined in ConTeXt are 
accessible using \MPcolor[colorname]. I _think_ that this works by 
expanding \MPcolor[...] to an appropriate metapost color expression before 
passing the contents to metapost. Is there a latex package for embedding 
metapost code in latex that expands its contents? (IIRC, emp does not). If 
so, it should be possible to write something similar to \MPcolor in latex 
as well.
