I also see the problem that moving the actual colour selection
one step further down makes selecting custom colours harder. How
good or bad that is probably depends on how good a selection of
schemes your average gtk theme ships with but for the sake of
the argument I'd assume very little.

I remember thos showed me a mockup for a colour tab with colour
schemes included quite a while ago which I found rather
promising. I hope he still has it around...
