| The catalog is littered with parts that have very likely been uploaded under
the wrong color. Look at 4495 for example, I would guess that 6 of those colors
with lots under them are just listed incorrectly (bright pink, dark blue-violet,
dark purple, Maersk blue, pink, rust).

This shouldn't happen when parting out new sets, but when listing used parts,
it seems some sellers don't check against current listings or against the
"known colors" data for the part they are listing, and they end up picking whatever
they want.
I would like to suggest that a control mechanism be put in place to help address
this. Maybe if a seller is adding a part to their store that is not a known color,
there can be a popup saying "this is not a known color for this part - are you
sure?". Maybe the pop-up can contain a list of the known colors to choose from.
If the seller is confident they have a "new" color, they can click "this part
is not a known color" to proceed with the listing.
Ideally, this would flag the entry with a tag that can be used in searches and
wanted list notifications. I would love to pick a part and ask to be notified
when one is listed in a "new color", or to be able to search within categories
for parts in new colors.
