They *can* set PROMPT_COLOR to change coloring immediately.
But it would be nice to have a configuration tool/UI some day.

Exit code is already handled in the current implementation.
I would like to make it more extensible in the future...

But I made a criteria that this simple MVP should not use PROMPT_COMMAND
nor should the default PS1 cause *any* external process to run by default.
So anyway this Change is not setting the bar very high, by design:
there are certainly lots of more powerful solutions around
like powerline or starship etc, and this Change is not competing with them.
:-)
The hope is that a simple conservative solution like this would be broadly
acceptable as a desktop default.

Thanks, Jens
