Krita only loads gpl, riff, aco and act palettes. Krita has never supported loading css files as palettes -- so this isn't a bug, but a feature request. In any case, just save your palette as gpl, and you can load it in Krita.

(Also, Ubuntu's 2.9.7 is very old, we're at 3.0 now.)

Now that Krita 4 is out, it sounds like a good candidate for a Python script. Should be easy to do, I guess.

It can be inside Krita's code if it's important for Krita to have it, or if someone declares to maintain it (fix bugs if some comes up in later years).

I got working on this. I have the most basic implementation working (4 RGB swatches and using the file name as the palette name), and I'll make sure it works with anything that could come up before I submit it.
