9.8 and Color Filters

With the advent of 9.8 Color Filters is approaching the limit of practical usefulness. Increasingly the meanings of Color Filters are (to me) getting tangled up with Tags there being only so many hues in the spectrum. While Don has preemptively attempted to meet this need with "distinctive shape" folks of my age using a small screen find this borderline invisible.

How about some side-lined suggestions from the past. E.g. a mute button on Preview Tab or even a new Info Panel Tab to allow direct reading and writing of Comments.

Just some thoughts on a very brumal morning here ... Maybe S.A.D. already?

To the contrary IMO! Of course, with every set of options, you need the wisdom to choose well. I use a handful of back colored filters and about a dozen text colored filters, and don't want to miss any of them anymore!
