Change a character style's color by dragging a color from within the Assets Panel
Ability to change a Character Style's color by dragging a color from the Color Assets on to a Character Style.
Problem:
To change a color of a character style in the in the Character Styles window is too tedious. It also requires the user to re-enter the color values using its color-picker.
Solution:
Make it possible to drag a color from the Colors Assets window on to the Character Style.
Also, make it also possible to drag-n-drop a color from the Appearance color-picker's local library onto the Character Style.

1. Problem
If I want to edit the color of an existing character style, it's not possible to pick a saved color from my assets. I can only manually input a hex code or use the color picker, but then the link with my color assets is gone. That way it is very hard to update any colors later on in the design process.2. Solution
Provide picking a color from the saved color assets when editing a character style. When the color asset is changed afterwards, the character style, and the color all the items that use that character style will be updated. -

I came to add this idea. Happy that someone already posted exactly what I was going to...
I think the best way to work with Character Styles is with the color not being included into the Character Style settings...
This way I can have 10 buttons with the same Character Style (size, font, etc...), but with different colors...
Maybe adding and OPTION to include the default color to the Character style, so only if you click there, the color will be saved... Something like that...
