Pick colors for labels

We should probably do #10 (closed) first, but then, we need to pick colors somehow, and they should be accessible, e.g. sajolida says that white on neon green is not, and white on orange is probably not.

Groups of related labels

Each group usually corresponds to 1 Redmine metadata field.

In most cases, we need to be prepared to have more new labels appearing in a group in the future.

Task status

  • "1. To do" (previously: Confirmed)
  • "2. Doing" (previously: In Progress)
  • "3. Needs Validation" (previously: "Needs Validation")

Idea: use a single, shared color for all obsolete ones.

(I'm not sure how the labels should be called yet; we could discuss this but it's orthogonal to the colors.)
