Dynamic Highlighting #2630

Description

As of v6.6.0, the current highlight feature allows users to manually set the text color of a single entry in the list. This is already very useful for marking specific requests.

However, it would be valuable to support an additional dynamic highlighting mechanism that automatically highlights all entries matching a defined rule (for example, based on host, path, method, or other attributes).

To clearly distinguish both features, one possible approach would be:

  • Manual highlight (existing feature): change the text color of a specific entry.
  • Dynamic highlight (new feature): change the background color of all entries matching a rule.

This would allow users to quickly identify groups of related requests without manually highlighting each item.

Additionally, it would be helpful to provide more color options than the six currently available.

Why this feature is important

When working with a large number of requests, it can be difficult to visually track related traffic. Rule-based highlighting would make it much easier to identify patterns and groups of requests at a glance, improving usability during debugging and analysis.
