Re: [community-group] Pre-defined composite type for refering color modifications (e.g. rgba) (#88)

I really like this! I'm wondering if something like `modified-color` would be enough to address the examples noted at the end of your message. Or if we might need a few.

Similar to what you described, when I, as a designer, asked our dev's to include different opacities as design token options so that we can modify base colours. I was told that there wouldn't be an easy way to do this.

An option was to provide all colour tokens with siblings that have the opacity defined, but that would just create a whole bunch of colour tokens that might not be necessary at the time and confuse designers/devs.

In Figma, colour styles also have their opacity baked in. So, it seemed like an easy and quick solution at the time.

However, thinking of future use and scale, this is definitely something we should think about. Thank you for sharing!
