That tiny color swatch next to colors is nice, but it's really hard to tell what color it is being that small. I mean, sure, you can tell which of the primary/secondary color hues it fits into, but if it there's a larger swatch on mouseover, it will be easier to perceive more detail and the differences if two colors are just off from each other. Also being presented a color wheel when clicking the mini-swatch where you can click a new color, that would be awesome and unique to webkit. Perhaps those should be two issues, but they were related enough...

It is possible that both of these concerns will be fixed when <input type="color"> is implemented and we will likely take advantage of that. The following are open: <http://webkit.org/b/25032> Web Inspector: Adding a Color-Picker Palette <http://webkit.org/b/29358> [HTML5][Forms] <input type=color> UI However, the concern to make the color swatch bigger may still be valid. For now I'll block this on bug 25032.

I don't think anything is preventing us from displaying a popover with larger color sample (and maybe color in all the formats) on hover. I'll ask tkent about the estimates for the picker, but I don't think we should wait for unknown in either case.
