Yes, this is true, the idea is use the HildonTouchSelector (or a pannable area
+treeviews for custom requirements) to choose elements from a list.

In the end, choose a color should be the same, with the difference that you
will only have a discrete number of color to choose from.

Basically it should be a list with all the colors, and if you want to avoid use
only the name, and extra cell renderer to show the color. Visually it should
be similar to the hildon-touch-selector-example.c (at the hildon repository,
examples directory), but instead of the stock icons, the colors.
