Bijan,

I don't believe that "colorizing without reformatting" exists in the current implementation, which feeds off the decompiled representation.  

If it were possible to obtain non-pretty-printed colorization from the MethodNode, I agree that it might make sense to set up a UI to allow the user to request it.  But I believe the point to be moot.
