I'm +1 if it could be implemented without much hassle.

Perhaps the bikeshedding could be minimized by deciding in advance on
how the colors would be calculated.

Something like...
   R = (MAJOR + MINOR / 16) / 5
   G = 1 - ((MAJOR + MINOR / 16) / 5)
   B = REVISION / 16

So the change would be more dramatic between larger changes.
