I can't see what your approach is good for. Views aren't made for
skinning. They are for producing view in the sense of schema, meta data,
links etc. but not for green or red. If you like to use it that way, yes,
your sitemap might look ugly then.
Your proposed enhancement is only giving another programmers view
into the sitemap which isn't what we initially wanted and is what
we like to get fixed in the future.
