Like this?

I can't see a reason why directories should not be able to do that...

Seriously: You should try a small script for postprocessing and define a
new output format "coloured_pages.ps" or so.

Then put a label "colourlabelxxx" on each page with coloured items,
and select the coloured pages from the .aux file.

Something like

   psselect `grep colourlabel Diplom.aux \
                | cut -d '{' -f 5 \
                | cut -d '}' -f 1 \
                | sort -n | uniq`

might help already.

But I guess there are simpler solutions. Maybe one even can extract the
colour information from the .ps directly...
