Disabled EditTable BACKCOLOR (OpenInsight 64-bit)

We have an OI 9 application being migrated to OI 10. The users are accustomed to specific BACKCOLOR settings to mean specific things, including which controls are disabled. In OI 9 it was easy to control the BACKCOLOR of edit controls (including EditTables). In OI 10 it seems that disabled EditTables are hardcoded to gray and setting the BACKCOLOR property won't change anything. Is this expected?
I know we can use CellStyles. We were just hoping to maintain backwards compatibility.

Hi Don,
Can you try setting the BACKCOLOR first before you disable the edit table? I think then it will keep the color you choose. It seems a little overzealous to ignore a color if it's not the default so I may relax that…

Hi Carl,
This is the response I got back from my engineer:
We tried that. There were two issues noted with that solution.
[list=1]
While the BACKCOLOR is preserved, at least temporarily, the text color is grayed out, which is undesirable.
On a tabbed form, when navigating to another tab and then back to the tab with the disabled edit table, the BACKCOLOR is then set back to the disabled gray color.
