Currently it's possible to run face color editing for invisible object :
* Right-click in Tree view -> Set colors
* User edit mode in 'Color' mode and double-click object
* Python Console : 'Gui.ActiveDocument.setEdit(App.ActiveDocument.OBJECT, 3)
The problem when doing so on an invisible object is that you can't actually select anything in the 3D view to apply.
What is your opinion about correct behavior ?
* Make the object visible ? Temporarily ?
* Forbid/ignore face color editing on invisible objects ?
* Other ?

Do you mean "Set Colors"?
Leave it as is?* Other ?

If you want to change something: Currently it is possible to open the set-color dialog for invisible objects, but it is not possible to switch back to the tree view and make it visible. It would be consistent with other tools if that is possible. I don't know if that causes problems because the click in the tree selects the whole object.
