Correct, the open color chooser on double click functionality just
looks for 3 or 6 hex digits at the position of the double click, "ead"
being 3 valid hex digits :-)

Allowing the hex value in any context allows colour values with
prefixes of # or 0X 0x, or in strings, or other places to be accepted.
