Asa is figuring out a redesign for the colours dialog! I wrote this so that it could be pulled in with whatever design he ends up figuring out with UI/UX people. His bugzilla says inactive so I didn't know how to switch him as the assignee here :(

There's a r+ patch which didn't land and no activity in this bug for 2 weeks.
:asa, could you have a look please?

The bug assignee is inactive on Bugzilla, so the assignee is being reset.
