Now, imagine if you instead could simply select the source colors in a
picture (which you can!) and choose which target palette they map to
(which
I think you cannot). This would be almost as quick as the normal white
balance tool.
yes, i agree setting the precise colour target instead of the offset
would be a nice addition to this tool. if i find time i might try a
stab at it. i'd be curious to see whether this does something useful
with a 24-checker thing.
I think the ideal workflow would be like this (similar to the commercial
colorchecker solutions): I would place my IT8 target in the first shot
of a series, and then later in darktable I would mark the edges of  the
target in the image, and the positioning of the patches would be
autodetected (with some perspective correction). Also, I could select
the manufaturer measurements delivered with the IT8-target, probably
after importing the measurements as some kind of preset stored in
darktable. And then darktable would create a color style that I can
apply to the other shots in the series with similar lighting. Then, in a
second step, I could decide to tweak the colors in some direction, e.g.
film-like.

Just dreaming...
Looks like a very promising module. Sadly - I find it at a level that is too
complicated (for me). Indeed - if I had a picker to at least match the
colors in the picture to the one in the swatches - I would try to use it but
to rely completely on eye judgment - most likely I wouldn't.
you can use the colour picker both to find the patch that most closely
matches the colour you pick, and to update the patch to exactly the
colour you picked.
Yes, but the important part, which is to get darktable to turn those picked colors into pre-defined colors, is not there, so although you can pick colors that's completely unusable as a tool described above.
