Since we got a lot of requests to add another folder colors, I understood that we can't cover all them. As to me, the better solution is to add a tool that allows users to add their own colors to the folders and keep only core colors built-in the icon theme.
Currently, I see the tool as:
a separated script for creating the custom color folders
an option to call GUI color picker with Zenity
wiki page(s) for sharing commands between users for creating the custom color folders
Next I see two paths, each of them has its proc and cons.
The first path is to be able to user changing colors for only special folder-custom icons.
Proc:
Easy to implement.
No need to manage list of colors.
After the icon theme upgrade, need to generate limited quantity of icons.
Cons:
Unable to create two and more custom colors and switching between them with papirus-folders only. It requires running the papirus-folders-add script each time before switching.
The second path is to allow the user to add unlimited color folders.
Proc:
Easy switch between two and more pre-generated color folders.
Cons:
Requires to keep all colors added by a user in a file (.csv) and add option to add/remove items from the file.
After the icon theme upgrade, it needs to generate ~409*N, where N is a number of user's color folders.
It requires a post-remove script for papirus-icon-theme to correctly remove all added icons.
