This is once more one of those send-question-find-answer-five-minutes-later 
mails.

	http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.6/qaction.html#iconVisibleInMenu-prop

i.e. chaning the previously attached code to  ...

  foreach (QString name, QColor::colorNames()) {
    QAction *action = menu.addAction(colorIcon(QColor(name), QSize(16, 16)), 
name);
    action->setIconVisibleInMenu(true);
  }

... works as expected.

Please excuse the noise.
