William convincingly argued that the three kinds of sharing policies
should have colour. Tags are commonly shown with colour background to
make listings easier to scan. We are showing the 3 kinds of polices are
tags. The problem is that our tags are presentation is grey.

I misinterpreted my surprise at seeing colour in Ian's demonstration.
There was a disconnect in presentation, but the solution is not to
remove colour, but to colourise the three tags.
