Tangent question from my ColorPicker thread so it doesn't get lost in the noise

Switching from the scripted colorpicker to the builtin picker. One of the nice things was the breakout of "palettes" which makes color selection a lot nicer in my opinion. When I try to replace the colors.xml, and load it, there are no colors shown just a blank window.

I reviewed both color files (script and kodi core) and the scripted has palette sections (clearly) to support the choosing.

Does or can the built in colorpicker support this type of structure? It is a feature I'd hate to lose, but I don't know enough about the engine support for something like this. Here is are the two (snippeted down) to show what is happening in each file. Is there any workaround suggestion otherwise?

Thanks.
