Color property for custom object

It would be nice, and very important for my use case, to have the ability—when creating a new object type—to also have color as a property. That is, for example, just like with tags: every time I create a new tag, I can select a specific color for it. I would like to be able to do the same for my objects. For instance, if I create a new object type called “cars,” I would like it to have a color property, so that when I create a car object called Ferrari, I can select red, and when I create a car object called Porsche, I can select blue.

I think this would be very important in general. In any case, I will now explain why it is particularly useful in my situation.

I am an Italian user, and there is no translation for “TAG.” The translation has remained “TAG,” which is an English word, not an Italian one. I understand that some English words are commonly used in everyday language across many languages, but for the way I want to use this app, in my opinion—and at least for my use—“TAG” should be translated as “CATEGORIE” (categories). And even if for other Italian users “TAG” might be acceptable as a word, for my use it feels so incorrect that I wanted to create a new object type called “categories,” hoping to replace the TAG functionality in a way as identical as possible. Unfortunately, that is not the case, because when you create an object of type TAG you can choose a color, whereas with my custom object “categories” I cannot. The result is terrible, and for me the app is unusable, which is a real shame because I was incredibly enthusiastic over the past few days after discovering it.

p.s. It could probably also be solved by giving users the ability to provide their own translations for objects/object types, but perhaps this is more complicated than simply allowing color to be selected as a property of custom objects.

Thanks in advance
