Colour Identity

Just a minor thing I'd like to see in the deckbuilder.
When designing a deck, you get those nice, useful pie charts at the side of the page which show you spell colours as a donut around a pie chart of the mana the deck can generate.
When setting a deck as a commander deck, it'd be nice if the inner chart would only show the colours in the general's colour identity. For instance I just put in the list for my Oloro, Ageless Ascetic deck. But because its got Transguild Promenade and Springjack Pasture in it, it shows red and green mana, which the deck can't actually produce in EDH, and that makes the mana chart a lot less useful.
Not sure how viable it is, but it'd be nice to get if possible.
I've never notice this before. And I went and checked a deck with Springjack Pasture , Forbidden Orchard , Grand Coliseum , Transguild Promenade and Rupture Spire and all I saw was the colour of my own general.

Typically it will add those colors only if you have cards that require that color. Is it possible you have split cards that require red or green or possibly hybrid cards that need that mana? If you don't then that's weird. I've never run into that before.

Its the standard Naya C13 commander list atm (I'm doing a project of tracked iterative updates to the decks, so right now its stock), and by definition, as an EDH deck, I can't have any off colour symbols in the deck.
What's really weird though is that when I opened the list today, it didn't show the extra colours.

It would be nice to do that for all decks, however, the implementation might be a little difficult. I think it would be easier to do for an EDH deck however.
