Yes, that in fact how it was in OOo (and still in AOO). Just for a reference,
here are kendy's commits which introduced those titles -

True.

> 
> 1. Never have title label bar as icon and tooltip already cover this.

> 2. If it is to be dragged have draggable grip.

> 3. If the contextual/changing label is needed in the widget, have it below

OK, I can agree with that. As long as the color pickers are draggable I'm
happy.
