Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-color] Mitigating fingerprinting for AccentColor/AccentColorText (#10372)

This is probably part of a larger conversation, but is obfuscation/privacy a concern for PWA/Home screen/"Psuedo-Native" apps?

I very much not want to my web apps to look and feel identical to native. System accents is just one of them. (Font size is the other).

For Materials Design (Android), I don't think the entire series of color options can be replicated with just color mixing. That would mean secondary/complimentary hues and all their variations. The use of HCT as a custom colorspace instead of BT709/SRGB makes it impossible to do with CSS. I haven't tried it, and might be able to get close, but no real color access would definitely be a limitation.

I mentioned this somewhere before, but limiting to a hue with limited variations is probably enough. Take the 360ยบ hue and segmenting them maybe 15 or 20 is probably enough to replicate a user's preferred primary device palette/hue.
