I don't want to pronounce on sanity, but I don't think it has ever been a
major criterion for whether people *will* do something on the Web.
And it seems pretty easy to make a colour picker in canvas. I can imagine
that anyone who wanted a specific-purpose color picker (styled to match
the site, or customising the options, or...) would do it in canvas or SVG,
and my guess is the former would be more common...

as implemented input type=color is a button that when activated pops up a
picker dialog. So the following code (as a simple example)
<canvas id="myCanvas" width="200" height="100"
style="border:1px solid #000000;"
onclick="document.getElementById('button').click();">
<input type="color"" id="button">
</canvas>
in Firefox 30/windows when the canvas is clicked the color picker is
displayed., likewise if the the input receives focus via the keyboard and
the enter/spacebar key is pressed the picker dialog is displayed.
