Hey.

AFAIU, the colour for the common prefix in colored-completion-prefix is
coming right now from the "so" field, that is sockets, of LS_COLORS.


Seems to be done by the:
#define C_PREFIX        C_SOCK
in colors.h.


It would be nice readline tries a dedicated field first and only if
that is not set, fall back to "so".

Since LS_COLORS seems to allow adding any '*.extension=' fields, one
could use one of these, without any compatibility issues.

e.g. LS_COLORS='...:*.readline-colored-completion-prefix=02:...'

This is a pretty slick idea. Let me see what I can do.
