In many cultures, green is considered a sign of "good", "OK", or "everything's fine". You can see this usage for instance in our traffic lights. Hence a green OSL entry -> one that's fine.

Facetiousness aside, I am going to add a non-authoritative mode which shows bad matches first, but I still think it's important to show _all_ OSL entries in authoritative mode. I have tried to tone down the "near perfect" matches to be less "bright green" but they can still appear quite bright when there are many overlapping.

Nightly with the odd extra update in the daytime if I want to try something out.
