ok, that explains the greenish tint. I think in most cases it doesn't 
make sense to copy the weight_Y expression to the U and V weights. It 
would be better to set them to 1 by default.
With the current behaviour, all four examples in the documentation are 
incomplete and :weight_U=1:weight_V=1 must be added.
