I'm not even sure if different colored menu items is such a good idea, 
this often looks pretty ugly.


There are some other usability things that really needs to be solved:

- if no capture file is loaded, both "View/Colorize Conversation" and 
"View/Reset Coloring" are active and can be clicked - but nothing 
happens. A usability "no go".

- the main menu and the context menu have a different structure which is 
a another "no go" IMHO. If it's not possible to have the "View/Colorize 
Conversation" menu the same way than the context menu, it's probably 
better to remove it completely from the main menu. This applies as well 
for the "View/Reset Coloring".
