color select dialog is useless

Irrlicht SVN includes a color picker dialog, but that dialog is totally useless. Actually, it's worse than useless.

There is no way to get the color that was selected
There is no preview of the selected color, just a silly color wheel that doesn't work
HSV sliders have no effect
The event messages sent by the dialog are file dialog messages. This will lead to crashes when the user tries to cast the caller pointer to a file selection dialog and call a method on it.

Yes, I guess that there will be some fixes for it in the next SVN revisions. But that's why SVN is declared unstable

In that case I have a whole bunch of changes to submit. I can understand unstable, but incomplete or unusable is not something that I'd ever expect to see committed.
