Is there any way to get Firefox to use the native color picker? (sopuli.xyz)

I use KDE Plasma, and much prefer the KDE color picker over the GTK one that Firefox uses, with input type=color.

I know that I can set GTK_USE_PORTAL=1 to make Firefox use the native file picker, is there a way to make it use the native color picker as well?

I know there probably isn't a way, but I figured it's worth a shot asking.

You have asked all the proper questions for me to have full respect for you and offer a link of my prototype..

Please take note that my software may have glitches, which should be outlined in the readme. I admit it's incomplete, but it's not easy designing a whole new GUI concept on your own..

Sadly I am away from a computer for quite a while so I can't truly test it, but the first picture shows a nice concept of Brightness X Hue between two colors.

I can't say I'm an artist, but I did design the current icon of a semi famous Android app, and I was actually using numbers to pick the correct values, as I wished the colors had a somewhat understandable mathematical relationship between each other
