current vs wanted behaviour

SUMMARY
I have many windows opened with different topics each, normally a browser. And each windows have multiple tabs (hundred of tabs...) in the way of a researching.
I want to have a way to set a specific window color so I can find a windows-topic more easily than reading all the titles to find the correct windows. 

For examples, currently I have 25 Firefox opened with 591 tabs and I want to set a green color to the firefox window that have the research about "customize KDE window". Other Firefox window could have another color, for example: set blue color to the FF window with the "OrientDB" research. 

Since the FF title change based on the tab you are looking, this is not a way to track it, or must be implemented a trigger that detect the change and update.
 
Since the windows id change between session, but the autopened windows track the last windows, could be possible to save the last title with the color and match again when the session start based on it.

Thanks. 

Marcelo

It's a cool idea but I think it's unlikely to happen unless someone submits a merge request to add it. Accordingly, I'm going to close this request. Again, it doesn't mean that it's being vetoed, just that there aren't resources to consider doing it absent volunteer contributions to do so. Thanks for understanding!
