Summary	677: Ability to colour code items in a rack based on a Tag.
Description	We use Racktables in a Gov Department and have been asked if it is possible to do Project planning inside the Product. The key idea is to be able to identify items that are targeted for a change in a project. For example equipment to be retired coloured RED, Equipment to be replaced in Blue and equipment to be moved in purple. We thought that if we could attach colour codes to different tags and then Tag the equipment based on the project choices we could identify the equipment that is to be changed in a project. Another use for this could be for identifying equipment by type.
Tags	No tags attached.

The solution I used was to just use the tag as a class in css for each tag and include the classes in the td when the html table is rendered. Lost the actual changes many versions ago but is a simple solution to the issue although does require the colouring to be done in the style sheet, not via the gui. Just an idea.
