You sacrifice consistency, transparency, and flexibility for having one static
configuration. Consistency means similar functions behave the same. Palettes
can be edited locally, delete, added, have the same naming scheme (i.e. lower
case, whoever introduced that) etc. Transparency is not given to the user, she
is not able to know why this particular palette behaves differently. And we
also loose the flexibility to adjust things, perhaps beyond the layout (Stuart
suggested, if I understand right, an internal layout with whitespaces to align
the colors), e.g. renaming the palette. Assuming we get the enhanced extension
manager, I blogged about recently, there should be not only an option to
download palettes (or more general, objects) but also to delete them. People
who do not do professional desktop publishing, guess >80%, will hardly use this
palette and prefer either what their OS provides (Tango, Breeze, Windows/Azur,
and MacOS/Capitain? - the latter are todos) or use the tonal swatch.
And finally I care more about Libreoffice branding colors. Why not hard code
these colors? <- This is not a question, at least not to me.
