Wow, it took forever to parse that. I assume what you mean is how you
can click on the preview and have the corresponding color selected in
the list?
That would be nice, I agree. It's not coded yet :-(.

Background and Foreground. Top row is foreground roles against
NormalBackground. Bottom row is background roles, using the foreground
most likely to have worst contrast with that role. The background roles
(except Alternate, currently) can't be set individually; they are
calculated from the respective foreground colors plus NormalBackground.

They do; look at KColorScheme::BackgroundRole. Most of them aren't often
used, admittedly. (Or did you mean 'can they be individually tweaked',
in which case see above?)
