You can try to subclass GtkEntry, override its expose method and invent some coloring there, draring the colored layout insted of the original one. However this is fragile and seems to require copy of a large amount of GtkEntry code to your new widget. So a completely new widget based on GtkEntry code might be preferable. In any case, if one entry is used for several pieces of information I would consider the use of several entries.
