AFAICT, yes.
I see two possible ways to get rid of this issue:
1. we use the wxCLRBTN_USES_BMP_BUTTON solution
2. we create our own ctlColourPicker
I'm more and more inclined to say we should choose the second one. The
first one is less work (at least for me), but the second one allows us
to be sure we have no issues with this kind of control.
I can work on the second one, it's pretty much what I already did for
the wxComboBox with the bitmap. Shouldn't be hard to do.
