Hi,
in svn r4662 I now added a color picker ("eyedropper").

@Granjow: Do you want to implement a color chooser? If not I will adopt
one from krita.
Also take a look at this post:
http://celarek.at/2010/07/krita-gsoc-colour-selectors-with-colourspaces-support/
If they are finished we might want to adopt some to give the user
several color choosers.
