Comment:

 I've attached a new spec for the color chooser to this ticket, since the
 spec and implementation of the color chooser itself is sufficiently large
 enough to warrant its own ticket.  I've also included a dynamic SVG file
 that Walter worked on which illustrates the basic idea.  This spec should
 clarify the details a bit.  This chooser should, as Marco mentioned, fit
 into the intro sequence in ticket #1543.

 The color chooser is effectively 5 separate sets of colors, each set of
 which fills in the circles within the attached image.  There are six rings
 each containing color circles (swatches) on each page.  The primary hues
 (same for all circles in each ring) for the rings will be red, orange,
 yellow, green, blue, purple clockwise from the top.  The secondary hues
 (unique for all circles in each ring) will be oriented such that the
 circle nearest the XO in the center is the identity swatch (red, red),
 (orange, orange) etc.

 The 5 circles across the bottom represent the 5 pages which for simplicity
 I'll call: dark, dark inverse, bright, bright inverse, and light in order
 from left to right.  The inverse pages simply swap the stroke and fill
 colors of the swatches.

 The XO icon in the center will be rendered as a white stroke with no fill
 until a swatch has been chosen.  From then on, it will take on the color
 of the clicked on swatch.  For the purposes of first boot, we don't need
 varied background colors, XO manipulation, or an indication of the
 currently selected swatch.  The XO's own color will be enough to indicate
 the state of the selection.
