Text color is static: it cannot express additional information about displayed values.
Describe the feature / solution to your problem you'd like
Consider a theme which displays CPU temperature in white. The temperature is always that color, whether the CPU is idle or has been at 100% load for an hour and presumably quite hot.
With this feature, the CPU temperature display could change color as the value changes:
White: Above 0C
Yellow: Above 35C
Orange: Above 60C
Red: Above 75C
Color changes can be a more effective warning than the value itself.
The same could be applied most values. For simplicity, stages would progress from lowest to highest threshold, presumably starting from 0 or the lowest logical value. Whether the colors progress in terms of alarm depends on context and design theme preference.
Describe alternatives you've considered / and or tested
None.

Environment:
Revision of this project: Release 3.3.4
OS with version: Kubuntu 22.04
Python version: 3.10.12
Hardware: Simulator (AMD FX-8350)
Additional context
A new optional ADAPTIVE_FONT_COLOR line in text options would, when present, override the FONT_COLOR value. It would require between two and five stages. Each stage's syntax could be like:
[value], [red], [green], [blue];
Thus the scenario described above would be defined by:
