Is there any way to get Firefox to use the native color picker? (sopuli.xyz)

I use KDE Plasma, and much prefer the KDE color picker over the GTK one that Firefox uses, with input type=color.

I know that I can set GTK_USE_PORTAL=1 to make Firefox use the native file picker, is there a way to make it use the native color picker as well?

I know there probably isn't a way, but I figured it's worth a shot asking.

In about:config see if setting widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal to true does anything for you.

Hmm, it appears it already is set to true. Unfortunately that doesn't seem to work.

If I recall correctly that enables the kde file picker at least
