    Description

      QPalette has been using 64 bits for a "resolve mask"; i.e. in dev branch (pre-Qt 6) ATM it has 

          using ResolveMask = quint64;
    inline ResolveMask resolve() const { return data.resolveMask; }

      and this is why it's not easy to add color roles: we would run out of bits.

      To support the Controls styles, for example, we may need to add the accent color, at the very least. Probably we should be able to add many more. And each new ColorRole should have values for each ColorGroup.

      Beyond that, it would be nice to make it extensible for users to be able to add custom colors for use in custom controls.
