Description piersh 2016-01-06 19:05:44 UTC 
- create a new RGB image
- hit 'T' to select the Text Tool (this tool isn't necessary to repro, it just helps to illustrate the problem)
- choose menu Color->Color to Alpha
- click on the 'From:' swatch
- click on the eyedropper
- click on the image

note: when clicking on the image, the text tool is used, instead of the picker.

this repros for other dialogs that have color swatches that bring up the color dialog (like colorify, fog, drop-shadow, etc...)
Comment 1 piersh 2016-01-06 19:08:04 UTC 
also: the picker works fine if you click on either of the dialogs
