How do you define a sum of colours? I suppose you're not talking about adding 
the rgb values :^)

More seriously, I think you have a situation here where the best choice differs 
between users, as there's no definition of what a colour label means. You seem 
to use them as on/off switches for B/W vs color, or to indicate ready to print, 
but then you *also* use some colours to indicate group membership.

And in that case, there is no way to define a "correct" sorting or grouping, as 
colours are in principle not ordered.
