Color of lyric hyphen

[Urs Liska]

Hi,

I would expect that with the following code the hyphen separating the
lyrics syllables would be printed red:

\version "2.19.57"

\layout {
  \context {
    \Lyrics
    \override LyricHyphen.color = #red
    \override LyricText.color = #blue
    \override LyricExtender.color = #magenta
  }
}

music = {
  c'2 c'2 ~ c'1
}

text = \lyricmode {
  Hel -- lo __
}

<<
  \new Staff \new Voice = "mel" \music
  \new Lyrics \lyricsto "mel" \text
>>


But as you can see in the attached image it remains black, while the
extender and the text itself are correctly colored.

Did I misinterpret what LyricHyphen is or is this a bug?

Urs
