Wish: Support "color" as part of the environments

I love Postman! Thanks for sharing it! Here's a suggestion to improve it:

It's disconcerting to submit a request only to discover that I accidentally submitted it to the Production environment instead of the Local environment. Oops!

When setting up an environment, I'd like to select a color to go with it. This would be used as the background instead of white when posting, to provide a much bigger visual clue of what environment I'm in. Defaulting to a shade or red when the environment names contains "production" would also be a nice touch.

For example, I might set each of my local, development and production environments with a different background color.

I have used the same safety feature for years with terminal backgrounds. Since the prompts seem to look very much the same, it's helpful to have a continuous and obvious reminder of which content I'm working in.

Thanks!
