According to a few sources (both online and from actual personal accounts from a friend's bf, etc) they all say the same thing. But here's an excerpt from Wookipedia.

Quote from: Wookiepedia
George Lucas permitted Windu's signature amethyst-bladed lightsaber at the request of Jackson, making Windu the only character in any Star Wars film to have a lightsaber that is not red, green, or blue. In addition, the prop department replaced the activation plate stud with a plate reading "BMF" [57] in reference to Jackson's character in Pulp Fiction. Before Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith began production, George Lucas was approached by Samuel L. Jackson who, knowing that Mace Windu was to die in the film, insisted that his character not die "like some punk". While promoting the movie on Conan O'Brien, he revealed his request to Conan, who joked that perhaps Windu would meet his demise by slipping on some soap in the shower.

Quote from: wikipedia
Also, according to an interview on the Late Show with David Letterman on May 13, 2005, Mace's purple lightsaber was a personal request from Jackson to Lucas as a quid pro quo for appearing in the films, as well as a way of making the character unique and easily distinguishable. Jackson, an avid Star Wars fan, especially wanted his own color so that his character could be easily spotted and recognizable in the final battle scene of Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones amid all of the other Jedi.

Sam Jackson's love for purple comes from the time he spent in college in Atlanta.  Purple means a great deal to him and during the "making of" for Ep II, Jackson is caught on camera asking for his lightsaber to be some other color.  George asks, what did you have in mind.  Sam replies Purple. 

Sam does have it in every film that he is a part.  Legend at the college he attended states that Sam's love of purple deals with a play that he watched there as a student and inspired him to do the things that he did.  Kind of a reminder of where he started and where he is now. 

Any how, back on topic, the saber looks great and I cannot wait to see what future customs will come to your future sabers if this is a taste of things to come.

Thank you for getting back on topic,

But anyway, I have a Shock LE coming to me, this week. Though I am unsure how much customizing I will be doing to it. Because its a lovely saber as is. But I'll see after I have it in hand.

When it comes to design I like simple and elegant and go by "less is more".

I have gutted the poor thing... and also have gutted my Monarch (raffle prize) who's sound board is getting put in my libby. And the Monarch is becoming a stunt, since not on of my friends (or family) like to use the thing, having sound in it is pointless.

So list of things to do to Libby...

~Drill sound hole(s) in pommel
~Drill switch hole for AV switch
~Install sound, AV switch, and LED with QD

Things to do to Monarch

~Install new guarded switch (broke the first one)

Yes that is an old Obsidian Sound Board 1.0, and that's my Shock sitting next to my computer.

How do you wire inside there?

I have a broken wire in one of my sabers and just need to reconnect it, then use heat shrink. It was a grab bag so I dont really want to pay to ship it all the way down for repair plus pay for the repair.

It is just a Dominix V3 in Arctic Blue, with standard 4 AAA batteries.

Depends on where the break is. I have just started to learn how to wire sabers. So I would ask that question in the technical board, I just don't feel conferrable answering that question.
