Is it possible to have multiple highlight text buttons on the toolbar (different colors)?

[ABC_Colour]

When using Acrobat Reader to research articles I frequently need to highlight a variety of sentences (within one document) in different colors, for example one color for statements I agree with, a different color for statements I disagree with, another for statements that prompt me to ask a question, etc. Ideally I’d like to have 5 ready-to-go ‘highlight text’ icons at the top of the document (with different colors for each that I have pre-chosen). If that is too much for the ‘system’, then at least 3 different ones would still be helpful. It would save a lot of time and there would be a lot less playing about with keyboard shortcuts and mouse clicks to carry out the task. It currently needs to be frequently ‘re-set’ to use a different color. It would make a massive difference to the speed of mark-up across a document if it could be done. So far I can’t find any solution within Acrobat Reader. Surely many other people would want to make use of such a feature? Any ideas gratefully received!
