Bug Description
Inkscape 0.91+devel r Ubuntu 14.10 64bit
I expect the Dropper tool to pick and assign swatches.
Instead it always reads the color _values_ and assigns a non-swatch color.

Questions to clarify the requested feature (pick colors from objects, instead of color values of the rendered objects):
Assume this situation:
- a rectangle with a custom solid swatch color as fill (100% opaque)
- on top of the rectangle, a circle with a gradient fill from blue to transparent.
What color is the dropper supposed to pick from any point inside the area of the two blended object fills?
Assume another situation:
- a rectangle with custom swatch color A as fill
- adjacent (to the right) another rectangle with custom swatch color B
What color is the dropper supposed to pick when used in drag mode (currently: average color over a circular region)?
etc.
