The title color change is obsolete: it dates from the time when we had separate user and device menus, where the user menu had a specific "Online Accounts..." item that could turn red. <https:/
There are many possible error states inside System Settings panels: your default printer may be offline, your default software update server may be unreachable, there may be no keyboard connected, your backup storage location may no longer be mounted, and so on. Each of those should be flagged with a helpful error message at the point of need, not by special-casing the title and contents of the session menu. For example, a prompt for you to reauthorize an online account could appear if and when an app actually tries to use that account. Please remove the red title.
