I didn't find it useful myself.  Even though it is not the final word
around here, I didn't see anybody else agreeing that having color.ui at
the begining would improve the tutorial.

Many other things are probably as useful to have as color.ui there, if not
more, and we obviously do not want to list all the things some random
person found useful and extend the initial part of the tutorial to 100
pages before showing how to create the very first repository to a new
person.

So you have to do much better than just saying that you like color.ui.
You need to justify that it should trump all the other potentially useful
configurations and added there.
