tinymce Specify initial color for backcolor button

With TinyMce version 6.0 it is not possible to specify initial default value for backcolor button. It is set to black, and I would like to be able to specify it to another color on initialization. I've scoured the 6.0 documentation and can't find any information regarding how to specify initial value.

Specifying a color first in the color_map on tinymce.init does not work either, despite that it looks like the first color is picked.

Setting execCommand("hilitecolor"..) is not an option either, as I want the backcolor button to contain the default color to use when I click on it, and not have it enabled at per default.

Was it possible in previous versions and how?

I don't know. I have just recently picked it up, so I am unaware of whether it was present in prior versions. Hence why I labeled it as a feature request.

However I haven't been able to find it in documentation regarding version 5.0 or 4.0. I'm just using 6.0 so wanted to specify that version to help a bit.
