I can't see why it would change, I would expect the map to remain
largely static. Only the colours of the links would change. The idea is
that one would become used to scanning the colours and be able to 'sort'
tasks visually. Am I making any sense?

That's brilliant, thanks for the effort. I'm putting this into my config
straight away. Is there a chance of your patch making trunk?
