I was talking to BBB about adding colorspace flags to
AVPixFmtDescriptor and how to do it. While doing this we tried to
figure out the exact meaning of the PIX_FMT_PAL flag that already
exists, however we failed to come up with an explanation.

Currently it just seems to be a property applied to all formats that
have 8 bpp or less and do not have the PIX_FMT_BITSTREAM flag set. So
what kind of check is this flag supposed to be used for? what was its
original purpose?  why does it exist?
