 Colour Select bug?

I am not sure how this was planned, but i have the feeling that this Colour Picker/Select Colour is buggy.
if i pick a colour with the colour picker(O), i get the colour on the mouse button i used to pick it up, now if i want to change this colour by clicking on the colour, the Select Colour window pops up. but the Colour which i picked earlier is now different than the one that is in the select color window.

here's a little gif to show it:
you can see how i picked the purple colour, but i got a blue one in the select colour window.
this also happens with other colors like:
i pick white (little bit yellowish) -> get pure yellow
i pick grey(little bit blue) -> get turquoise

if this was intended (which i don't believe) why is it like that? i'd like to pick a colour and change it so i can continue working with it :/

The colour doesn't change if the colour picker is already open - this is a known issue. Not actually a bug.... but would be a nice addition so you can leave the colour selection open.

no, i guess i didn't make myself clear :) the window wasn't open, i picked the colour, then opened the window to change the colour, but the colour is wrong.
here's another gif:
i pick the colour, open the window to change the colour, but the colour is wrong.
now i found out that if i click on the point where the colour SHOULD be, it gives me the correct colour!

Just wanted to say I have exactly the same issue(nice description with the gif!). I wondered if it has been resolved yet?
