Hello Kévin, all,

Thank you for the updates. Before I reply on your comments I like to propose an 
idea similar to Mirek's for the palette tab:

Multiple palettes for the ability to choose colors digitally, without moving 
any sliders or pointers. It helps users look at multiple colors at once and 
choose between them.

Because New is the more important one and the one that will be updated. I feel 
that it is natural for it to be there (it is even implemented that way in the 
color map).
Usually it's top/bottom for New/Old in most programs though. Maybe we should 
find a way to do that?

While I definitely prefer a drop down menu, if we are going with the icon we 
need to have a label next to it (theme options or something).

What I meant is that the number of color aside from the first should be an even 
number (2, 4, etc.) because the middle shade was already removed to the top. 
Something like this (lower numbers represent brighter colors):
[3]
---    //gap
[1]
[2]
[4]
[5]

Maybe we should have a voting then to see what most people think :)

Fair enough. Maybe we can even use LibreOffice branding theme or Tango theme as 
the default.
