--- Comment #1 from EnzoR <vincenzo.romano at notorand.it> ---
I can see there is a setting within the profiles that controls this (weird?)
feature.
Edito Profile --> Mouse --> Miscellaneous --> Preview Colors on hover.
The hint text reads "When positioning the mouse over a hexadecimal color it
will be displayed in a frame next to the mouse pointer".
This works only if the "hexadecimal color" is in the form "#HHHHHH[HH]" ('H'
being an hexadecimal digit).
If the last two optional digits are defined, a checkerboard is displayed. (See
attached screenshots).
It seems also to work with 9 hex digits...
Only thing is that it is not supposed/documented to work with English color
names.
I could then dispute when/whether that patterns is actually a hexadecimal
color, but I will refrain for that.

At best the bug is in only the hint string that should read:

When positioning the mouse over a hexadecimal color or and English color name
it will be displayed in a frame next to the mouse pointer
