Color document tabs or other methods to identify files better

[Ulrike Fischer]

I often have quite a lot files open and I often have to switch
between a smaller subset of these files and constantly hover with
the mouse over the tabs to find the damn file I need now ;-).

So I'm looking for a way to improve the interface.

- Is there a way to setup fast e.g. in the tree view or something
similar a small list of links to files so that I can access these
files better?

- Or is there a way to color some document tabs, so that I can see
the relevant files faster?

- Or is there a way to setup a "search" dialog with incremental
search which can be used to switch between files?

- Or has someone a better idea?
