It would be phenomenal to be able to have different colors for different Task Tags.  You already have markers for warnings and errors, yellow and red, but:

IE:
NOTE - Blue
FIXME and TODO - Orange
SECT and XXX - Green

I personally use XXX to create bookmarks so I can more easily identify where each section of code starts, like init, threading, click/touch actions, and so on.  It just makes it so I never really have to look hard for what I need, but if I want to include NOTE, FIXME, or TODO, then it just becomes a cluster of markers, which is why I have just included those by the bookmarks instead, when I personally would rather include them inline with where it belongs so less thought has to be put into it.

If I am just one of the few people who would really appreciate this, then it can be laid to bed, otherwise, I will fall in love with you all for making it happen.  I don't know much about Eclipse development and plugin wise, but if there is a way I could develop this myself, I would love to be pointed in the right direction.

Thank you very much for an awesome development environment.
