way ahead of you. I am in the process of developing a contrib module  
built exactly for this.

The Istyledthis theme was built from the ground up to use this module :

Before picking a new colour :

New colour picked, before submission, check preview :

After hitting change colour :

Colour schemes already mathematically generated for use in stylesheet  
templates :

Working on making it a more generic api that other themes can  
support, but it really does help
a LOT that the theme was built for this.
