Enhancement: Recommend a color from palette given input color

I have a use case where I would like to input a color and possibly get a list of colors sorted by how similar it is. Maybe calculated via a simple distance formula?

I am working with some designs that have colors close to the defined palette, but are off a bit.

Maybe slightly related to https://github.com/abe33/atom-pigments/issues/242 ? In the sense that both want to extend the autocomplete functionality to include already existing variables related to the one that is being typed.

I was thinking adding another input box to the top here to sort the list:

Maybe add another option to sort colors by similarity to color inputted:

Hi there, do you have an idea of what kind of criteria would be used to check for similarities? I mean distance is not a clear criteria when it comes to colors, is it distances between channel, between number representations, between hues, etc.
