This is fantastic, and I will definitely use it for personal projects in the future!

I see a few requests for practical features here, but I have one incredibly silly request: how plausible would it be to restrict the colors to a set list of RGB values, so one could, say, generate color palettes for physical mediums based on medium color -> RGB conversion lists, such as painting, cross stitch thread[0], or yarn[1]?

yeah that should be possible, just need to quantize the resulting palettes to the closest available thread color. You could possibly do it with the api (there's some instructions at the bottom of the about page)
