Based on http://superuser.com/questions/403650/programmatically-set-the-color-of-a-tab-in-iterm2
Probably most people are looking for an easy solution that would enable them to differentiate between connection on different servers.
This feature will auto-choose a color from a safe set of about ~64, based on the hostname.
I think that there is a little change of getting the same color for two different hosts (assuming that you are not usually connecting to hundreds).
The best part about this feature is that it doesn't require any customization from the user, it just works and solves a problem.
