Summary0017834: New doc has only 3 colours (+1 related issue)
DescriptionWhen no doc is opened, going to Edit > Colours & Fills, you can see all CMYK (+black variations) and all RGB colours. (Good)

But when you create a new doc, there are only three: Black, White and Registration.
Steps To Reproduce1. Create a new doc
2. Check Edit > Colours & Fills
Additional InformationA related issue (which, I think, stems from the new doc not having Cyan):

Cyan comes as brownish.

[I have Cyan selected as fill colour in Preferences > Items Tools > Shapes > Fill Colour]

Now, as per the first issue, when the new doc only has 3 colours and I create a shape there (which is supposed to be filled with Cyan), it is filled with a brownish one and which is still called Cyan.

Also note that Cyan is shown as an RGB colour (the icon) and not CMYK.

I think @cbradney fixed it yesterday in r27629

I just compiled r27629. Unfortunately, it is not fixed yet.

In fact, the issue worsened for me somehow.

Earlier you could see all the colours with this step:

1. Edit > Colours & Fills (when no doc is open)

Now this step shows the same 3 colours as well.

I think it should be good now
