Allow User to Select Column DefaultCategoricalColorScheme or DefaultContinuousColorScheme from Available Color Schemes

Currently in the "Properties" for a column pulled into Spotfire you can adjust set the DefaultCategoricalColorScheme or DefaultContinuousColorScheme properties for a column by manually typing the name of one of the "Document Color Schemes" within the Spotfire file. This works great, but it would be much more intuitive if the user could select the color scheme name from a list of available color schemes within the document rather than having to type the name manually.

It would be even nicer in this scenario to also have the ability to also select from color schemes saved to the library. Essentially give the user the ability to "Select from Document Color Schemes" or "Open from Library..." or "Open from File...", the same options that are made available from the "Colors" menu within the properties menu for a visual.

A side request that would also be helpful would be the ability to view, rename and remove the "Document Color Schemes" from a tab in the "File > Document Properties" menu.
