Thanks for this feature request @bronson. As a possible workaround, I recommend you look into the Tabs docs, it covers how to change tab colors, and even set the name of the tab in the "Terminal tip" section, also look into the Session navigation feature for quickly finding sessions.

Describe the solution you'd like?
I'd love it if my terminal's palette automatically switched whenever I log into a new container or remote host.
Here's a mockup:

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm often surrounded by identical-looking terminal windows. Even though they look the same, they all connect to different containers and remote hosts. It gets confusing and can lead to accidents.
Additional context
I explored one possible implementation for a different terminal here: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/Design/whiteboards/-/issues/233
Summary: when Warp changes a tab's title (usually in response to the prompt sending "user@host"), it could also set the tab's color scheme based on the hostname. 'bronson@fedora
would be blue,
bronson@colo` would be scary red.I think something like this would cure me of typing commands into the wrong terminal!
