I'm not really sure to understand.
The palettes we dispose on starmath are HTML ( made from MDN documentation ),
even if not visible on UI, and dvipsnames is on work ( color dvip colorname,
follow overleaf documentation ).
On core/starmath/starmathdatabase there are also functions that allow to
identify a color name.
That bug seems to be closed. And the colors definitions match the documentation
ones.
It is possible to add X11 colors. Something like color x colorname or even
colorx colorname. Have to check if there's a list somewhere or if I have to
define them _SM_. And also other palettes can be added.
I added as naturals the HTML colors because the previous colors where already
following the HTML standard and not X11. Changing they're definitions to match
X11 would break old documents.
For now the color picker can only have the HTML palette. But I can keep adding
colors as long as there is someone willing to do the UI work. If interested I
can explain you how does work starmath color identifier to pass them.
