RegistryEditForm extends AutoExtensibleForm from plone.autoform, so you 
can use plone.autoform schema hints to specify the widget in your schema.

from plone.autoform import directives as form
from plone.supermodel import model

class ISettings(model.Schema):
     color = schema.TextLine()
     form.widget('color', MyCustomColorWidget)
