P: Color coding text in Collections, Folders, and Filter Bar

Having a color tag on the right is almost useless.  It's not how the eye works.  You scan the list of text, not colors.  Allowing changing the text color would be so obviously useful.

    Agreed! I would also add a shortcut using the standard LR colour label shortcuts. If it interfers with that shortcut maybe add a modifier alt or shift. 

    It would be a lot easier to visually scan collections (or even folders) with the colour extended across the name instead of a small sliver that takes multiple mouse clicks to add. 

    If shortcut isn't possible for some reason, when you right click > Colour Label - have a swatch. Still slower but more colour options for the user. Thanks
