1. I agree with you. I would prefer the old way with the coloured box
around the image. It's much easier for me to spot them.

2. On the other hand, I did store a search with:

picture properties > labels > clicked on: all colours except for the
none. 

This shows me the images labeled with colour per folder, but this
means an extra step.

If there's a better way, I'd love to know.
