Summary: color.palette.XXX fails with 1 item only.

Initial Comment:
Hi,

If I try to plot using change(stroked|filled) or
change(symbol) and provide only one item to plot,
things work out normally.

So I expected the same when using color.palette.XXX. 

The primary use of palette is for more than one dataset
but as people start plotting things automatically with
scripts (as I do), it may happen at times that the
script will have only one dataset to plot, so it would
be nice if it simpled worked with a single data set as
well. 

If crashing with 1 data set is the intended behaviour,
I think I would be beter to define a new exception type
to give the user a beter hint of what went wrong.

Indeed, it is the intended behaviour. OTOH I've heared about others who 
complained about this as well. Might be its really better to allow for this 
(ab-) use case. I've checked in the enclosed patch.
