Guess coloring the stdlib docs might not be a great idea then. What about some sort of easy configuration? So the users that liked it could get it but not all users were forced. If we can't count on server-side scripts, seems like javascript cookies would do.

Server-side scripts? Cookies? Are we talking about syntax-color-coding a user's locally generated HTML-based (or maybe ri-based with terminal ANSI codes) RDoc-generated documentation, or color-coding the documentation hosted at ruby-doc.org?

The former would (should?) be a matter of picking a non-default template when generating the documentation. The latter...well, although I'm definitely pro-color-coding, I don't think it's a good idea for the ruby-doc archives. Colored source that uses a different scheme than the one I'm used to can be worse than none at all.
