It is to me.  1. I locate the bookmarks I want quicker and 2. more fit 
on the bar as almost all are just the favicon - no text.  Colour goes a 
long way visually where grey text is always grey text.

To you no.  To me yes.  Colour is quickly located.

Changes I don't mind.  But mindless changes (removing colour from 
sidebar titles or icons) is plain idiocy for the sake of bragging on 
simplicity.
