Bug Description

Let the user be able to select a color of choice to use for his folders.

If I have many directories, then perhaps I would like to assign a different color for some of the folders.

Example, I want to assign Pink for my Porno directory, Blue for my collection of pictures of skies, green for my collection of nature photos, black to my folder containing source code, etc.

I don't know if this is possible, but in my opinion, its a great idea. Maybe the correct place for it is http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com ?

Thank you for your bug report. That could be a nice feature but the ubuntu team doesn't have the ressources to work on that, might make sense to sent it to the bugzilla.gnome.org
