Thank you VizBoy for the clarification. I didn't know the colors array
was cyclic.
With my requirements, I have to display slices for "problematic"
entities (red), "warning" entities (yellow), "ok" entities (green) and
"unknown" entities (gray) at which point it is quite important to keep
this order or it will confuse the user. So, my colors array need not
be or actually should not be cyclic.  So as you suggested, adding an
option to change this behavior would help people with requirements
similar to mine.

Thanks a lot.
Simal
