What about fdisk where we have many dialogs, warnings, hints? :-) It's
not about colors only, but also about bold, etc.
The another possibility is namei(1) where we can provide output
compatible with ls(1), or cal(1), etc.

All this should be optional. I guess than many people use aliases with
colors
$ alias | grep color
alias egrep='egrep --color=tty'
alias fgrep='fgrep --color=tty'
alias grep='grep --color=tty'
alias l.='ls -d .* --color=auto'
alias ll='ls -l --color=auto'
alias ls='ls --color=auto'
