Make highlighted nodes/paths colored & saveable

There is no repeatable or save-able way to indicate the path of a node tree, especially if there are conditional elements.

I propose making "documentation of nodes" in an easier to understand visual method. This would complement the naming' framing functions.

Currently you can Select a starting node then "Shift + L" all linked elements, like route nodes and connected nodes. Once you have a Thread Highlight complete you could save it and label it as a "State" and choose a Highlight color. Then assign it to a collection(?). You could cycle and mix the appearance of this element via collections so that others can interpret the flow of your logic.

Example: Image

You could use the colors to indicate Boolean operations for example.
