--- Comment #1 from Noah Davis ---
There was never an eyedropper in the toolbar. There was a drop shaped icon in
the toolbar next to the color selector, but that was just an icon, not an
eyedropper. The method for picking a color from the image is still the same:
Open color picker, click Pick Screen Color.

In what way does it not work as intended? The indended function is to get the
color of the spot on the screen where you clicked. Does it not do that?

I don't think I'll add a dropper directly to either of the annotation tools or
annotation options toolbars. The tools toolbar can't have it because it would
be unclear which tool or property of a given tool would get the picked color.
The options toolbar could potentially have eye dropper buttons next to each of
the related color buttons, but I don't think it's essential enough to put it
directly in the toolbar and it would use up a not insignificant amount of
additional space (up to 3 extra buttons for stroke, fill and font). However, I
could replace the standard color picker dialog with a custom in-window popup
that has an eye dropper button closer to the related color button.
