Color drop down in object inspector

Hi,

While in suggestion mode :) The editor for a tcolor property in the
object inspector gives me only access to the predefined, named colors.
Of course I can enter the colorindex by hand but it would be very handy
to have access to the color picker dialog. Maybe double click like the
Delphi IDE does it.

Kind regards,

    Added to the list :)

    Currently you can use the Designer toolbars to access the color dialog. For
    a text object use the Format toolbar items for Font Color and Highlight
    Color. For a shape use the Draw toolbar items for Line Color and Fill Color.
    Those item have a drop down color palette, selecting the More colors...
    button at the bottom provides access to the color dialog.

    It's going to be a long list...

    I know about the menu options for text and highlight color etc but you
    also have the different background gradient property colors. Instead of
    new toolbar items for these properties, the inspector solution seems
    more elegant in my opinion.
