That is a good tip ...but probably not for the colour-blind ;-)
Use inverse colours, then (black text on a coloured background). Having

In gnome terminal I created the profile which did this... red
translucent background and ran "su -" on opening new tab for that

quick color que as to your elevated login status. My background schemes
tend to be white for local, black for remote (ssh etc), and red for any
root.
