  Description     : Color tabs differently and make them easy to distinguish

 ColorfulTabs is a Firefox extension that colors every tab in a different color
 and makes them easy to distinguish. It also beautifying the overall appearance
 of Firefox. ColorfulTabs does one and/or more of the following:
 .
  * Colors each tab using pre selected colors in a definite order starting from
    the left.
  * Colors each tab using a unique and randomly generated color.
  * Colors each tab using a unique color depending on the site domain using a
    formula.
  * Allows user to chose colors.
  * Allows one to fade the background tabs for easy identification of the
    selected tab.
  * Allows quick identification of the tabs.
  * Allows quick identification of tab boundaries.
  * Increases usability and visibility for people with visual challenges.

The author has given me an exception (via private email, which I will reproduce
in debian/copyright) to create a derivative work for Debian. I understand that
this is not DFSG and will be problematic for other distributions to work on top
of - I will try to persuade him to re-license under a proper FOSS license;
failing that I will upload to non-free instead.
