Well, I sort of finished some fairly major changes to the 'Color' class
based on my growing frustration with my original design. The new class
is essentially a wrapper around Gdk::Color and uses Gdk::Color as its
internal data storage. I think this will help things stay synchronized
a bit better between what's displayed and what's stored in the class
(I've had some issues with that in the past).

The code in subversion also has an updated Favorites list that will
display a small colorswatch in the listview. This makes a huge
difference for the usability of the favorites list since you can now
glance and see what color you want instead of trying to guess what the
hex strings mean.

A few smaller things: added keyboard shortcuts for a few more actions
(randomize, add favorite, remove favorite) and tweaked the
split-complements scheme a bit to make the two complements a bit more
distinguishable.

Currently next on my plate are bug #2896 (switch to color when
clicked), and implementing history. I've been playing with both of
these a bit already and they're both giving me some problems, so I'm
not sure how soon they'll be completed.

Help and bug reports always appreciated

Jonathon
