--- Comment #2 from fl...@mailoo.org ---
I was not clear enough it seems.

I did not mean for this to be a global, as Rainbow Folders are, so it is a
per-folder basis indeed. As such, I don't think this bug is a duplicate of
#395569 (although the two subjects are technologically related I believe, since
the existence of Rainbow Folders means it's possible to generate coloured icons
automatically relatively easily).

I know there are coloured folders icons in Breeze, but what is missing are
coloured "special" folders.

Maybe an example will be clearer. What I mean is that Breeze is missing the
equivalent of the following Papirus (which I am currently using) icons for
example:
https://github.com/PapirusDevelopmentTeam/papirus-icon-theme/blob/master/Papirus/32x32/places/folder-deeporange-development.svg
https://github.com/PapirusDevelopmentTeam/papirus-icon-theme/blob/master/Papirus/32x32/places/folder-grey-private.svg
https://github.com/PapirusDevelopmentTeam/papirus-icon-theme/blob/master/Papirus/32x32/places/folder-bluegrey-templates.svg

Having access to those icons allows me (us!) to make a "visual code", for
example a colour for some folders that repeated in my hierarchy (say "script",
"report", etc.) which I have to detect rapidly using a combination of such
colour and their associated icons/emblems ("dev" for script and "document" for
report, for example). I can then associate other colours to other kinds of
folder, while still distinguishing among them using their "emblems" (by this, I
mean the little icon within the folder icon).

Now, I realise this might be too niche, I can accept that, I just thought the
technology to generate such a wider panel of icons seem relatively easy to
implement (maybe I am wrong on that), and it would be a nice extension to
Breeze.
