XQueryColors() can generate BadColor and BadValue errors.
| BadColor | A value for a Colormap argument does not name a defined Colormap. | 
| BadValue | Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by the request. Unless a specific range is specified for an argument, the full range defined by the argument's type is accepted. Any argument defined as a set of alternatives can generate this error. |
