Users that *do* need to use rxvt or SSH should simply disable the

Heh, that almost suggests that the native Windows command.com
support can disable the color without upsetting anybody ;-)
If that is the easiest way, yes.
I *do* think that trying to get color working on the DOS cmdline is a
worthy goal. I just don't think it is worth overcomplicating the issue
and trying to handle rare corner cases such as someone SSHing into a
Windows box, or running CMD inside rxvt.
One approach that might be more compatible with the existing escape code
approach is to define the appropriate ANSI color escape sequences. Ah, a
bit more googling shows that cmd.exe doesn't handle ANSI sequences in
Windows NT and later.
