Title:
  Changing font colour to custom RGB value is hard

Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite:
  Fix Released
Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  From upstream bug:
  After many years using LibreOffice/OOo I found out today for the first time how
  to set font colour to a custom RGB colour.

  To do this, you need to add a new colour to the palette, via Tools->Options,
  Colour.

  Then in that dialog, the workflow is kind of unintuitive. I clicked on the
  "Add" button to add a new colour, which was the wrong thing to do - apparently
  I needed to change the name of the active colour first - then when I clicked
  "Modify", and set the new RGB colour, then clicked "OK", the colour wasn't
  saved - I had to click "Modify" first.

  I was expecting to see this in the toolbar in the colour drop-down - perhaps a
  "Custom" button at the bottom of drop-down? Or right-click->Modify in the
  palette colours? Or even in "Format->Character". But this definitely seems like
  a context change, rather than a global setting/option.
