I think there may be a step missing from your list there.  What "Color Palette"
do you click on in step three?  Do you mean the tree with the list of colours or
the actual colour dialog you use to chose the colour values?

This may be a dup of bug 60639.
Bottom line is that there is no platform mechanism to translate an RGB into 
a 'color name' string. As Grant says in 60639:
"RGB(255,0,0) is obviously "red", but what is RGB(102,11,250)?"
Also, note that screen reader users typically do not care about color.

Marking as invalid.
