   Thanks for answering Tomek. The idea is not to have all the operators with a color in the config, but only the operators you want to modify it. So if you like all the default colors, your [colors] section will be empty, or even won't be there. Otherwise, if you want (as the most likely case) a few modifications, it would be just a few lines, that could be at the end of everything or even in the webserver config file. 
   
   I am not sure if it would make sense the standardization, since every project/company uses a different combination of Operators, and I think it would still require some customization. For instance, we could set the color of Azure Storage, Google Cloud Storage and S3 operators under the premise that usually they are not used together, and use the same color for all of them, but probably there would be out there at least one person who would need to use more than one service in the same DAG and hence customize the color. 
   
   Furthermore, I see other cases where a customization would be needed: color blindness (there are different types and would be impossible to satisfy all of them), strong personal preferences for other colors than the default ones, very bad screens that don't show correctly certain colors...
