makes sense to me. It is not info that one needs so often, I would say.

But your next comment shows the information in a more subtile way as addition
to the header text. That wont work unfortunately because the sidebar pickers
are presented without this header.

To repeat what I said in comment 14: Simplicity first, meaning we shouldn't
show secondary information on prominent positions. The RGB information is less
relevant for an office suite especially at the color _picker_. We better show
it with alternative methods like in the dialog (my preference), a tooltip (what
we agreed on, IIRC), or added to other text. But not as an extra label.

Agree this is still valid... adding a Label to the color picker to show the RGB
Hex of the "active" color (font, background, fill) would be useful. Especially
since now the "Recent" swatches of the color pickers show a tooltip of the
swatch's assigned "color name" when it was selected from a palette, or the RGB
Hex for a picked custom color or external source otherwise. 

Currently, obtaining the RGB Hex of the active color requires an additional
click into the Custom Color dialog to read it there--like Jay I believe
labeling the Color Picker would be a clean UI without need for adjusting
tooltips (as bug 108751).

Such RGB Hex label--e.g. #729FCF--could be into an area on the widget as Jay
showed (attachment 108609)--or possibly could be appended to the "Font Color",
"Highlight Color", or "Fill Color" labeling of the docked or torn-off widget
(Toolbar or Sidebar deck). With the widget label would be cleaner than a new
area in the widget body, but not sure which would be more dev effort.

The minutes do not accurately mention what was agreed upon, as mentioned in
comment 16. If others in the design team disagree with this suggestion, it can
be closed. Stuart, Adolfo, Cor: your thoughts?

In the mentioned meeting [1] I read that it was agreed to implement the tooltip
solution at the widget, see Bug 108751. Therefore the Wontfix here is ok.

That's not what we agreed on in the design meeting, see comment 15. And since
the tooltip is working on the picker we can close this ticket.

You misunderstood. Bug 108751 is about the toolbar button tooltip and this bug
is about the text label of the current color appearing in the widget, similar
to how its shown in my mockup as 'Custom Color: #663332' in attachment 108609.
