Comment (by jscipione):

 I wish I had more time, but, I have a system worked out that is much more
 elaborate than simply adding a color picker based on Colors! or using the
 Icon-O-Matic color picker to Appearance. What I've created is a system by
 which you can have several plugable color pickers, so Appearance could use
 one, Backgrounds another, Icon-O-Matic a third.

 It would be up to the developer to install their own color picker in the
 right place

 And the user could also pick a different default color picker by setting
 the mime type in FileTypes. It is based on an idea by Pavel and I've much
 expanded the idea and built a few basic color pickers. I haven't build one
 based on Colors! or Icon-O-Matic but it would be pretty easy to do that
 once all the other pieces are in place.

 I would also like to further improve this by having a system wide set of
 color wells (squares of colors that you can save) that would be available
 to all color pickers.
