A white wall or a blue sky is rarely made up of all of the same shade; more often these areas consist of many, many different colours that appear to the eye to be a single shade.  Usually, only digitally-created images have a solid colour; it would be better to have an eyedropper that selects a small (or large) region rather than a single pixel.

I was about to suggest this as well. Quite important feature imho. The
radius should be configurable somehow.

Something else, we need a different cursor for the color picker. The
current one (a cross here) hides the color I'm clicking on at the
moment. I could create one if desired.
