Sorry for the confusion. I was more talking about the CSS property 'color', not the content. But I forgot that 'color' can really make a difference (e.g for color: black; flood-color: currentColor;)
'fill' would mean that feDropShadow can take a PaintServer (not only color, but also gradients and patterns) and I don't think that this would be very useful. 'flood-color' would be ok but I wouldn't use it, because the name associates that it belongs to feFlood. What about 'shadow-color'?
