Or just invent a new handle.
int palette_handle=palette_create();
etc.
(palette_create would deal with the colour manager)
This allows the very common one-palette-per-application as well as
n-palettes-per-window (can't imagine a use for that, but I'm sure there
is one... maybe a scrolling window of images).

(GEM++ doesn't enforce this, but yes many libraries do)
