1. RATIONALE
1.1 Use cases:
Users need to set colors to the sheet tabs, to visually differentiate each sheet.

None.
2. REQUESTED CHANGES TO THE ODF STANDARD
17.15 <style:table-properties> (existing section)
Append to the end of its attribute list: table:tab-color.
18.x: table:tab-color (new section)
The table:tab-color attribute specifies the color of the tab associated with a sheet.
When this attribute is missing, the application should use the default color used for sheet tabs.
