Background Color for SQL Server Management Console

I am new to SQL server 2005 and I was wondering if there was a way to visually tell what server you are connected to other than the tab loacted at the top of the page. Something like changing the background color of the editor to red if you are connected to a production server so hopefully the user will not make unapproved changes in production. Please let me know if there is some feature like this out there. Thanks.There is no such feature.|||

Funnily enough, I was thinking along exactly the same lines as Jason. If no feature exists is it possible to do it programmatically, as an add-in? eg create an event handler that would set the background colour whenever a connection is made or changed, depending on the server or database connected to?

This strikes me as more the sort of thing for an add-in than a core feature.|||

Please post your feature requests at:

If enough folks like the idea, it may be incorporated in a feature set.
