Wouldn't it be easy, if we could add colours to our contacts, like we can for
our appointments? For example yellow for family, red for business, green for
customers, blue for friends,...
I guess it's not too hard to accomplish, since there's already a possibility
to put contacts into categories?

I mean colors, like in Outlook Agenda: you can label an appointment "work",
and it colores red. In my Contact list, I would like the detailed Adress
cards to mark my business contacts red, family green, friends blue, and so on.

The Outlook Calendar uses labels and the labels are assigned colors. This
feature is available only on Calendar items.
