Colour picker settings should apply to all colour pickers

[Frozen Death Knight]

My feature request is to make the settings you use for your colour picker apply to all colour pickers globally. Sometimes I just want to colour pick from my selected layer, but I can only do it while using the Colour Picker tool. Would be a very nice quality of life change.

As a side note, but still pretty important, I would like to bring more attention to the issue of not having any form of indicator when holding down alt to do fast colour picking with your brush. This was based on the conversation I had in this thread below, and my comment had a few suggestions on how to best solve it. Fixing the above issue as well as that issue from the other thread would make a lot of painters very happy!

Thank you @Frozen Death Knight

Here's a quick preview in case anyone still does not understand it.

Makes sense. Having multiple options - that affect all color pickers - including the "Alt" one. Like, "sample from current layer only" or "sample from all layers", depending on what the user wants.

YES!!! Simple & precise color picker - even with color feedback.. that would be an amazing improvement to Affinity. For both photographers and painters!
