Ability to quickly change fill / stroke color with a keyboard shortcut

See original GitHub issue

I would love the ability to quickly change the color of an element using keyboard shortcuts. Currently I need to click around a lot of UI element to get the correct color and then I need to click around the UI again to revert back to the previous color which new elements default to.

I would love the ability to press on an element and then invoke a keyboard shortcut (perhapsc) to bring up a color palette picker and then user arrow keys to selected a color and enter to commit to it. This would only change the color of the selected element and not the default color of future elements.

The hardest part is fixed: selecting a color via the keyboard. But still need a keybinding to open the color picker itself
