Maddening colour choices - change tracking "by author"

Hi,

It seems to be an established fact that MS Word may (at will) chage the colours assigned to
each reviewer each time you open the document.
In summary: the Microsoft article
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/152966
quite correctly points out that the change of colour is not a tragedy as long as the user
can distinguish between revisions made by individual reviewers. This is OK by me.

But, when working on documents with revisions from 3 or more reviewers, some of the colours assigned to the reviewers practically look the same (eg. Teal and Green) - simply a bad choice. You then find yourself involuntarily tilting your screen and looking at your monitor from all kinds of unusual angles, ususally with little luck.

I have had my eyesight checked less than 2 months ago, and suffer from none of the colour-blindness brands that less fortunate people may sport.

The coveted remedy is simply the ability to define the first 6 colours which are assigned to revisions when "by-author" colour mode is selected.

Anyone, any glimmer of hope is most welcome, please?

Many thanks in advance,
Alex
