Mmmm, yes but... I don't get the old colour palette. It was not the best in the world, but it had a certain richness of choice, and some sort of logical arrangement. Instead, what I have now is a vertical list, where picking colours of similar hues but different lightness is much harder work, and there are far fewer colours to choose from. Hopefully some kind of user error at work here.

As far as future development is concerned, why not use a standard palette (e.g., something provided by the OS)? It would provide a greater choice of colour, most likely any colour we want.
