Comment (by mattwiebe):

 Great work on the improved UI @lessbloat - I'll look through your latest
 patch and see if there's anything more for me to contribute to it. I have
 some accessibility enhancements, but you may have beaten me to the punch.
 Definitely need to fix the bug in Iris where it doesn't really allow the
 text input to be blank.

 Yeah. So, `iris` is the the more general picker component, whereas
 `wpColorPicker` is the WP-specific color control. One thing I noted
 earlier was that it would make sense to focus on `wpColorPicker` so that
 we could more seamlessly swap in something other than Iris in the future
 should it look to serve our needs better. Logic would then dictate that
 all interactions with Iris be abstracted through `wpColorPicker`. So, I
 guess I should make that work. :)
