Area dialog vs color picker drop-down

Currently the only way to create a custom palette is from Area dialog. But area
dialog is not intuitive place to look for this functionality; most users meet
colors more often using color picker drop-down. The drop-down is used on Format
toolbar;  The drop-down resembles left part of the Area dialog; in Character
properties (font color selection), in Line properties, border properties, etc.

Additionally, it's required to activate the Area dialog's Color button to
access the custom palette controls. Users are confused finding it [1].

The proposal is to add the two buttons (Add/Delete custom palettes) into the
picker. It has small enough height to accommodate the buttons (which
additionally could be made small buttons with + and - to the right of the
palette selector), and that would make this feature accessible.
