Have a look also at:
CURRENT WORK ON COLOR:
showing that color sensation depends on eye movements (see Aline Bompas)
Also: A new approach to color: explaining unique hues, opponency and Berlin
& Kay's anthropological data on color naming from a simple sensorimotor
hypothesis (with David Philipona) Download pdf

And the references therein. It speaks directly to your two questions.
Also worth a look:
Schrater and Kersten: "Vision, Psychophysics, and Bayes"
http://gandalf.psych.umn.edu/~kersten/kersten-lab/papers/SchraterKerstenMITPress.pdf
It's a little broader setting, but some good stuff on color perception in
that paper.
