Support for Kelvin in Color Temperature Selector

[schelv]

I recommend adding the Kelvin scale to the Home Assistant's Color Temperature Selector.
Currently it only supports mireds.
This is not convenient when you want Kelvin as the color temperature as you have to convert between kelvins and mireds in multiple places.

When you say "add the kelvin scale", what do you mean exactly?

Do you want a yaml option when instancing a selector that changes the display between kelvin and mired scale? I.e. End users of the selector will not be able to choose, but I'm imagining this is a choice of the developer who is the author of a blueprint or script. Is that what you're asking for?

I think you are talking about this, which I had started on some time ago? #14495

I need to rework that a bit though to not break old blueprints.

Here you can see the problem I'm facing with the current color temperature selector: https://github.com/home-assistant/core/pull/94394/files
I want a color select thingy, but the thingy returns mireds.
Which is annoying because I don't want mireds.
