I think that'll just force currently-similar colours to be the SAME
colour, by reducing the space of available colours...

...allowing some variablity in S and V might be a better idea, to expand
the space.

Perhaps the configuration could list max and min values for H, S and V,
and have Fossil pick a colour within that region. The default would
allow all of H and a small range of pastel-oriented S/V.

People with a bold corporate colour scheme could restrict H somewhat if
blue just really clashed with their headers! :-)
