That's not a color. That's a style attribute. So that will fall under the style swatches/picker.
Not really.
You are already setting style in swatches.cpp:
Oh, yes. I know how I'm *implementing* things, but on the outside its coming from something that only represents a color. What you want is currently covered in the fill&stroke dialog as "No paint | Flat color | Linear Gradient | Radia Gradient". It's a different section of that dialog, and a different concept.
That's all. Please do it, it will be a MAJOR convenience as it will remove many of the remaining reasons to ever open Fill&Stroke.
And that's the long-term goal I'm looking at. I just want to be sure to do it in a good way so that the dialog can be left aside. So among other things, a Fill has a color, bit a Fill is not a color.
Why not call it just "preview" then?
Well, among other reasons is that GTK+ already has a deprecated widget called "preview".
