Change background color for Admin Console

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

WAS admins have a non-prod console, and a prod console open side by side to do any config comparisons, and by accident, easily one might change the configuration in Production Live Console, which is quite risky. There have been many instances that my customers have seen this kind of a situation. So, my customer wants to request IBM to have the ability to select a background color for the Admin Console, so that they can demarcate PROD from Non-PROD, for example they can have PROD console having a red background, and so we would obviously be careful to stop/change something. This would help a great deal.

    I have uploaded a snapshot of a design that I have been working on. This design works with the existing consoleProperties.xml file that is used with the console identity string. This would allow an administrator to select the color for the navigation pane for the console. This would be configured from the Console Identity link under System Properties. The user would specify an RGB color. In the case of the example, the value is FF0033. This may be too much color.
