SUMMARY
Sometimes, it's not clear if the output of a command came from the command's stdout or from its stderr.
Therefore, it would be nice, if konsole could optionally color them differently, e.g. by adding an option or an entry in the visual style or by setting an environment variable or something similar.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enter a command which partially fails in konsole, e.g. "ls / /root" as normal user

OBSERVED RESULT
The result does not show which information came from stdout and which from stderr

EXPECTED RESULT
It would be helpful if stderr could optionally be printed in, e.g., red

I think this is invalid.  Konsole supports colour output.  It is up to the application(s) running in the console to decide the colours to use for output.  Please reopen if you disagree.
