This palette used mostly be developers when they create new controls : for example button by default should has clBtnFace color
But this is not  our case due we use color pickers for next things : ColorGroup, Tags, Tabs and Message Editor - no sence to use windows pallere here, for example tag with caption 'work' and color equal to clActiveBorder.

New color picker has the same keyboard functionality like old  - i mean that alt+down expands the list and using arrows user can select needed color.
As for about narrator - in old and new component we use dropdownlist that narrator desn't spell.
I thought before about fact  that new color picker doesnt contain windowd pallete and checked lost of programs from  Microsoft(MsOffice), Adobe, Other mailers - no ones use windows pallete in there settings and color pickers, but them support Accessibility.

May be you have an idea how to imporove new color picker with Accessibility support ?

I can extend pallete like this
