Answer 1

I was attempting to use Kuler as a means to unite all the adobe programs around my color templates. With this use in mind, I was definitely interested in seeing the option to add more colors. Strangely enough, however, I've learned Kuler doesn't sync with photoshop CC (you can save to the web from it, but you can't download to PS from Kuler,) so I'm not entirely sure how useful this is to me. I have to manually download the profiles and drag them into the swatches category in order to use them, which to be fair is pretty useful (better than me manually entering them) - but it's a far cry from the ideal cloud-based organization structure of having your pallette's right where you need them in all your adobe applications.
My two cents: Adobe needs a much more comprehensive overhaul for tieing in professional pallette's. This may be Kuler, or it may not... either way, I see no difference thus far between using the products as I used to and using the creative cloud. When I think of cloud-based products I think of everything I need being tied to my account. Currently that's not possible with colors, it seems.
For what it's worth, I think it's implemented very well in InDesign, so with that respect I think Kuler is great save for the limitation of 5 colors. Perhaps it's worth having a "create" category, and a "library" category - that way you can label each color and save them in any amount you wish for retention of your current pallette's. I think that would be really cool - and if it was tied into Photoshop the same way it is tied into InDesign it would be nearly perfect. Seems like a relatively small tweak to the overall structure with a big payoff for us professionals if it can be implemented.
