Description
Hi!
I am testing napari-spatialdata on a public Nanostring Cosmx dataset (https://kero.hgc.jp/Breast_Cancer_Spatial.html), and I would like to set a custom color for each label of a specific categorical variable, i.e., the cell types obtained with an external tool. I tried to manually insert a dictionary in the uns slot of the anndata object used as 'table' in the spatialdata object, in the format {<label_name1>:<hex_code1>, <label_name2>:<hex_code2>, ..... }. However, after I load the spatialdata object on napari and I select the desired annotation in the 'observations' panel on the right, an error message pops up, and the annotation is not visualized at all. Here is the full error:

AssertionError:
######################################################################################################
I have no clue about this, especially considering that a student of mine previously succeeded in setting custom colors with an older version of napari-spatialdata. Currently I am using the 0.5.4.dev2+gf84b79b version of napari-spatialdata on napari 0.5.4 in python 3.12.3 on an ubuntu machine.
I am still a beginner with python, can anyone give me any advice on how to solve this?
Thank you in advance!

Research direction
Reproduce the categorical-color selection using the AnnData table and custom colors described in the issue. Start at napari_spatialdata/_widgets.py:248, where the traceback shows the color mapping reaches pandas.Series.map, and inspect how the mapping is obtained from the categorical annotation. Done means selecting the annotation renders the labels with their requested custom colors without the AssertionError.
