Support for HDR Color in custom actions

Hi,

I'd like to request support for HDR Colors & color pickers in custom actions. Currently you can do a Vector4 field but it's not as fluid as being able to use an HDR color picker.

Having Unity display its HDR colour picker is a case of attaching the ColorUsage attribute to the colour variable, i.e.:

[ColorUsage (true, true)] public Color myColor;

IIRC, however, such attributes are ignored by Unity when fields are used in custom Editors such as Actions.

To get around this, you can serialize the Action and use a PropertyField to represent the field in the Action's ShowGUI function, rather than a specific field type:

var serializedObject = new SerializedObject (this);
serializedObject.Update ();
SerializedProperty vectorProperty = serializedObject.FindProperty ("myColor");
EditorGUILayout.PropertyField (vectorProperty, true);
serializedObject.ApplyModifiedProperties ();
