If you want to contribute ideas, you can add them to the wiki:

Please if you do so, if you could add some explanatory links too, that
would be awesome, because I would not be able to implement several of
your propositions without some serious reading myself.
How does one log in to the wiki? I seem to recall from long ago (the one
time that I tried to use the wiki) that I ended up logging in as someone
else. I don't know what password or user name I might have used, and I
don't see a link for creating a new account.
I just tried to add a high bit depth unbounded floating point color to a
new color palette, and the color was clamped to 8-bit RGB, changing the
LCH Hue by 15 degrees! This is a rather large change in color! and
rendered my effort to put together an image-specific color palette quite
useless.
It seems to me that an unbounded floating point RGB image editor at
least needs to support unclamped high bit depth RGB color palettes, even
if the palettes are "sRGB only" instead of also supporting the
color-space-independent LCH, and/or providing a field for specifying the
RGB color space primaries.
FWIW, I filed a bug report:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=794184
Best,
Elle
