I'm also convinced it would be a nice feature to have, but the drawback would be increasing 
complexity of the interface and complexity of implementation (I said "performance" on IRC which is 
only part of the problem).

I think we all agree that we need a solution to re-use a color that is used in the document and 
that is not present in the palette.
IMHO, in most cases, the user wants to re-use a color of an element of the document that he 
actually sees. 
I the mockup I suggested, you have to select the element, click "other", add this color to your 
palette, and then apply it. It's sub-optimal, but it's rather easy to implement and it's already a 
significant improvement over the current situation. 

Adding an "eye dropper", as suggested, would probably be a good idea, but it can be implemented 
later.

I'm really convinced that we should have a realistic approach so that we can have quickly in the 
code changes that make a bit difference. 

Cheers,
