I cannot, for the life of me, understand why anyone would want to specify a color in hex.

Because having to type up about 13 characters including brackets, commas etc. when you can get by with 4 chars for most needs is a pain in the ass.

Because that's the way CSS/HTML works?

CSS and html both support rgb(), rgba(), hsl(), and hsla() colors in addition to hex...

Do most browsers actually support hsl/hsla? Never actually paid attention to that. Would certainly be nice... though I've already put the conversion code in CP.
