In my opinion, the Automatic Color button inside the new color picker is not intuitive, that it, it is not obvious that it is a button where we can click on. Suggestions: (1) Make a box around the button to make more obvious that it is a button; (2) Show a box with the "real" color next to the "Automatic" label; (3) Put the button on another position or make it smaller, maybe at the right side of the title of the color picker window.

I agree that it is unnecessarily large. It also doesn't indicate if it is currently active or not unlike other colors.

2) would be nice, but usually it is just black

About (2), yes, it is more or less obvious to us that usually it is just black, but for most people it isn't, so it would be helpful to show the real color even if it is just black.
