It's not something big but it is something that could be useful.

When a dye drops, you normally get to see "Monster name drops a vial of dye [green]". But why not give the color of the dye that has been dropped a color as well?
For example the green dye drop would look like this:

Seeing blue/purple/golden/green weapon/item drops with color I don't see why it wouldn't be possible

I like it, it's just one of those little things that adds to the nice coat of polish GW has.

I think he meant the coloured names would only apply to the chat window contents rather than drop tags. Besides, yellow is different enough to the orange/gold colour of rares if you ask me.

Indeed.
As of now it's rather hard to see if a dye drops or not, specially if you are busy in large/long fights.

I've lost several dyes that way already and I don't think I'm the only one with this little 'problem'
