I don't think there's that many programmers who never, ever deal with colours. An icon, a font change, and you need colour. Not to mention the fact that colours provide useful cues in general and improve productivity (syntax highlighting, coloured terminals, etc.).

I am systems developer working mostly in C++. I often make things with no user visible GUI, like libraries and algorithms. They wouldn't be able to pry my colored syntax highlighting from my cold dead hands.

emacs on my NeXT cube (which was B&W) used font highlighting. It worked pretty well.
