Setting alpha via an object doesn't work

[derekcicerone-zz]

$.Color({red: 10, green: 10, blue: 10, alpha: 0.5}) results in a color with alpha set to 1.

The bug appears to be at line 276 in this section:
// everything defined but alpha?
if ( inst[ cache ] && jQuery.inArray( null, inst[ cache ].slice( 0, 3 ) ) < 0 ) {
// use the default of 1
inst[ cache ][ 3 ] = 1;
if ( space.from ) {
inst._rgba = space.from( inst[ cache ] );
}
}

It seems to just clear out the alpha every time.

This still seems to be an issue, 2 years later.

The workaround is to do $.Color({red: 10, green: 10, blue: 10, alpha: 0.5}).alpha(0.5), but then what's the point of having it in the constructor in the first place?

Also affects HSLA.
