Is it (or can it become) possible to assign colors to calendar categories or even specific events?

more options

For the 'Category' feature this could be done with a pick-list for each category; Maybe a color selection over-ride for specific events under the 'Options' menu?

This would really help calendar readability -

Thanks!

Chosen solution

For categories, you can set the colour of a tiny bar in the event's entry in the calendar.

Tools|Options|Calendar|Categories

You can set the colours associated with calendars so a clumsy way to do it would be have separate calendars for the types of events you want to track. This would allow the entire entry to be coloured rather then the tiny blob associated with a category.
