Yep, for sure. So really 2 different Theme Components here (both integrating a color-picker).

1. Site-global setting including a per-user global setting, starting with basis [Highlighter Composer Button](https://meta.discourse.org/t/highlighter-composer-button/277597/)

2. Composer/Fast Edit Button (with added CTRL-H keyboard shortcut) for select-color highlighting on-the-fly, based on @merefield’s [approach](https://meta.discourse.org/t/fast-highlight/277528/7) where bbcode is stored in the post itself.
