Description
When the user drags the cursor and hits #000000, the cursor jumps to the bottom left corner. This isn't _wrong_ but makes the experience a little jarring. I would expect the position that the user picks to "stick".
See recording below of the react-color website:

See figma for example (notice that re-opening puts the cursor back to the bottom left, which I think is fine)

Research direction
Start by reproducing the behavior in the react-color website using the recording as a reference, then trace the color-picker cursor handling for pure #000000. Done means dragging to pure black leaves the cursor at the selected position instead of jumping to the bottom-left corner.
