Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Color codes help to quickly understand list views. Assigning colors to task should be a highly useful improvement.

Describe the solution you'd like

This is how asana handles setting tag color. I think they did a great job. A long press on a tag could overlay the Set Color selection showing a selection of default colors, which work for dark and light mode. Once set all tags in task list use the color set of the corresponding tag.

Research direction

Start by locating the tag rendering, tag interaction, and tag persistence entry points in the Tasks app. Trace how a long press could expose color selection, then verify that a selected default color is retained and applied to tags in task lists under both dark and light modes.
