In Evolution, you can choose colors to customize different topics or calendars. I think it would be useful to be able to define a colour for each topic in Epiphany bookmarks and then allow tabs to be colorized according to the colour of the topic. 

When I translate, I keep several tabs open -a few dictionaries, style writing manuals, damned lies pages...  It would be great to be able to distinguish, at first glance, different "groups" of pages which are bookmarked under the same topics...

There's an extension called color tabs or something like that for Firefox, someone suggested that time ago.
However they suggested to just take a background color of the tab not a per-topic thing.

I don't know if it's possible with GTK+ to color tabs differently, but if it were I don't know if we should make it part of core Epiphany, maybe a extension could do it. It would be a simple matter: just query the topic (if any) to which current page belongs and if "ephy-color-tabs" has a color picked for it, then color the tab.

What do others think?

Interesting idea. What happens with pages that have multiple topics?
Comment 3 Michael Catanzaro 2016-09-28 16:37:51 UTC 
Don't think we want colors
