Eclipse plugin to colorize/visually flag entries in the Package Explorer?

I am looking for a way to colorize entries in Eclipse' Package Explorer:

In bigger projects you have dozens of files in a package all listed underneath each other. This makes it hard to find the file you look for (e.g. for right-click operations). So it would be nice if I could manually colorize some entries.

Does a plugin for this exist?

One way to have Eclipse filter the classes you see is to use Eclipse Mylyn. You create tasks that you work on and Mylyn will remember the packages and classes associated with a certain task. It will then filter out all other classes/packages. This gives you an editor that only shows the information relevant to a specific task.

I suggested Mylyn for a different problem aswell and in that answer I gave a bit more information.

This is one that I was using before. It lets you set rules and tints icons accordingly:
