It's a nice suggestion but, it would require a definite plugin for this to be added.
Dzienny could add a brown wool block, here's the message it should give (if it will be added anytime soon):
Block "brown" appears as brown.
Rank needed: banned
There is only one thing I do in life, that's contributing here.

I have a bit of an essay for you, I just started writing and as usual it turned into something too long. Anyway...

It is impossible to add new colours for the general player, as minecraft classic was created with the 16 existing colours only in mind. When data is sent from server to client about a player message, it includes information about the colour. If you're playing on minecraft.net, then this only registers the 16 colours Notch first included in the game.

It would be possible to add new colours to the game but only for people who use a custom client and server. The server and client would have to understand each others sent data (player chat packets) and therefore know what colour a player is using (so new colours can be added). For example, it would be possible for Dzienny to add more colours to MCDzienny AND XWoM - so if a player is on a MCDzienny server using XWoM, they could use/see these colours.

Although, it is pretty pointless as the expansion cannot be applied to everybody, only a selected number of people who are using the specific client/server; and the 16 colour codes now are pretty sufficient. You can read more here.
