Can I mark zones in timeline, e.g. by color?

[AtomicCanine]

Hello, All -

A kludge to accomplish this somewhat is to make a transparent image 
(let's say zone.png, 1920x1080), add it to the project bin, duplicate it 
for the number of zone types you wish, and rename them as needed.  Now, 
you can drag the, perhaps, "GOOD" zone onto a track at the top of the 
timeline and stretch it to fit your needs. Likewise with the "BAD", and 
so on.

Being transparent, they do not affect your view, but their clip names 
(as you set them above) should be evident (there may be a setting to 
show clip names in the timeline or not - I'm not sure).


Here's something I just cobbled together





Just an idea!
