Color VisualShader nodes by category

[Geometror]

Describe the project you are working on

Godot

Describe the problem or limitation you are having in your project

When editing a complex VisualShader with lots of nodes it can be difficult to maintain an overview/quickly parse the graph, especially at high zoom levels.
For comparison, this is a current screenshot of the editor: A bit monotonous, isn't it? :)

Describe the feature / enhancement and how it helps to overcome the problem or limitation

Coloring the title bar of VisualShader nodes according to the category they belong to makes it a lot easier to read the graph and orient oneself.

Describe how your proposal will work, with code, pseudo-code, mock-ups, and/or diagrams

Well, I'm going to show Blender as an example again:

With color-coded nodes you can immediately see in which section e.g. your vector operations are located.

If this enhancement will not be used often, can it be worked around with a few lines of script?

No.

Is there a reason why this should be core and not an add-on in the asset library?

This needs to be deeply integrated into the VisualShader editor and is therefore core.
