No, you can just go ahead and append it yourself.
If people hate the colors, they will yell, but, judging from what I heard
from conference attendees, there's consensus that the current choice of
default colors/gradients is rather unfortunate.

I'm not exactly sure which colors you mean, though: Tango Sky Blue Light +
Medium or all Tango colors?
I would prefer the former, as the color picker is crowded enough as it is.

Ok.

I would hold off on this until we revise color handling.
