color code lists in RTM Gadget

james.cummings says:

Is there a way, or would the RTM development team please consider adding a way, to color code lists in the RTM GMail Gadget?

I use the RTM GMail Gadget and I have it show me tasks from all lists and also those with no due date.

It would be very useful if I could assign a color (either on RTM site or Google) to a list. The tasks from that list would then be colored to reflect what list they came from. Currently all the tasks look identical and it seems stupid for me to prefix task names with the name of the list they are on or something.

Many thanks,
-James

A perennially popular request....

There are several ways in which the subtle use of more color could help the UI, I think.

Ah yes, I see that many other people have asked for just the same thing. Seems straightforward to me, add a user-customisable colour per list. Then in google applet, tasks from that list are coloured with the list-colour. In RTM Settings you could turn off all use of extra colours or not.

Ah well, I hope RTM consider this (or maybe say why not to stop future requests).
