current color selection

Currently, to select a color, you have to select a named color in a drop down list.(see attachment) It's not easy to associate a name with each color of a large range of colors.

It would be interesting to have a color feedback when selecting color.
For example, the element of the drop down list could be colored with its associated color.

Indeed the color selection is not good, we could use a ColorDialog, http://www.java2s.com/Tutorial/Java/0280__SWT/CustomizingtheColorSelectionDialog.htm

Currently property sections for color selection use combo, see AbstractComboPropertySection. it exists RGBColorChooserPropertySection to use a ColorDialog.
