Color Coding for tasks and calendar

Color Coding for tasks and calendar

I think it would be very helpful to be able to color code tasks and calendar events by category.  You could have for example 10 different colors and the ability to assign types of events, such as meetings, sales calls, etc. their own specific colors so they would be easy to spot on a crowded calendar.

Your thoughts?
