Personally, I'm not sure what is needed, and I would prefer to do this change at the request of an actual color blind person who needs it and can provide real feedback on the issue.

But that's why I'm tackling this case:

To determine *whether we should do something about it, and what* *or **to close it*

There are different types of colour-blindess. I have a friend with one that see predominantly one colour (e.g blue) and the other kid sees predominantly another colour(e.g.yellow). I don't think any one colourblind person will give broadly applicable results. I think we'll do better addressessing general design principles [1] [2] and testing software[3].
