Paint tabs on taskbar to corresponding window(s) #11103

Provide a description of the new feature / enhancement

It should be easier to spot a corresponding window by color than reading a few words on the tabs.

Can you provide a bit more context here? My head jumps to a few things reading this.

A doodle / MS Paint screenshot would be very helpful.

In Chrome tabs can be assigned with a color by grouping them.I would like such behavior appear on the Windows Taskbar, highlighting tabs in their assigned color. 67759359-B590-4E3F-AE13-C94746BC36A7 Furthermore, if tabs can be grouped with a color, a developer like you, could assign a group of windows/tabs to bigger or smaller tiles automatically. For example in the picture below, I put the textbook tab/window in the big tile, while the email apps in smaller tiles on the right side of the screen. So, there two categories on both tiles (in FancyZones) and windows/browser tabs. 8CB381B2-9024-4DA8-BBFA-6D947049A14F
