Ha, ha!! If you really want to stress "multitasking" you can read the dits
and dahs of Morse rolling down the waterfall, as long as the station isn't
too QRQ, Hi! 

By normal mixtures I was referring to the normal transitions as one moves
between primary colors: greens between blue and yellow, oranges between
yellow and red, violet shades between red and blue.

More multi-tasking than I can handle anymore, but I see your point.  I 
probably won't be a P3 early-adopter, but then, I've never really been 
entranced with panadapters, even the old ones that weren't color-coded, 
except for green.

"Normal mixtures?"  And no, I am not going to take Elecraft to court 
over ADA issues.  I think I just don't like waterfalls on screens.  The 
kind on rivers are great.  Fortunately, I quickly found the switch that 
got rid of the WF and gave me a full-screen spectrum display, and it was 
a lot of fun, and impressive, to play with it.  Keeping track of the two 
VFO's and filter BW in relation to the freq span and center freq was 
really cool.
