I don't quite get it. I kinda assume that I'm just not understanding how I can add colours to a custom swatches palette.
You can't with Inkscape.
I mean swatches have been around for quite a while now, but so far I don't see the point in it, if I can't create my own palette with custom colours.
Inkscape uses GIMP's palettes. You have to edit your palette with The GIMP and then copy the *.gpl file into Inkscape's palettes directory. If you then remove every palette but your own from this directory, it will, obviously, become the default one in Inkscape's Swatches dialog. This is just a workaround for the Swatches dialog not remembering the selected palette upon exit.
