Subject: [PATCH] Change again the seq. of colors used for var groups.

In a recent conversation with a colleague, I realized
that having red as the first color (and with a very red
close button) could lead to the misunderstanding that
the variable group tab was indicating that something
had gone wrong :-) hence I'm suggesting a new sequence.
