The new "hard link" highlighting would be nicer if it was optional. I have lots of files with an "original" name that are also hard links to a canonicalized version in another directory hierarchy. Instead of showing the original coloring based on the extension, they show the hard link coloring. Perhaps a special code for dircolors that tells "ls" to ignore a class of highlighting and continue searching for another match.

Thanks
