What we are doing is using Inkscape to create cross references between an xml document and a svg graphic.
We will not be creating or changing the graphics at all, that is done by a whole other group of illustrators.
All my users will do is create a light blue box over the item we want to reference. We must have that box the same color every time it is created. In an ideal world I would like to be able to have the exact same size light blue box created each and every time.
So I just need Inkscape to create a light blue bordered box for each of my users

Seems like a weird thing you are trying to do...limit an artist's choice of colours?
Maybe you can describe what it is you are actually doing and we might provide a better solution. "limit the color choices" is a solution (to which I'm offering one possible approach), but what is the actual *problem* you are trying to solve?
Anyways, you can create a custom palette, edit the existing Ubuntu palette and/or delete the other palettes all in that directory. The palette file is simply a text file (edit with Notepad or try using a good text editor). Format is pretty straight forward.

I am looking more at limiting the color choices to just the Ubuntu accent blue

palettes?
If so, I think you can create your own. See the palette dir (default windows is below).

I want my users to use the same color blue box boarder for all boxes they create. I know that I can set that color on my own machine and it will stay until I change it. What file controls that? I want to install that same file

my users inkscape so we are all creating the same blue boarder.

I made a screencast a while back regarding custom color paletts. You could make one for your students and only include the colors that you want.
