Allow ability to "colourize" 'How long ago' column

Description

It would be useful to be able to specify thresholds for different coloured output on the "How Long Ago" column of the UserStatsMacro.

Currently, if we have a fair number of users, it's not clear instantly who's good and who's bad. Example:

User Last Login How long ago
user 2008/12/04 00:36:38 5 day(s)
user 2008/12/07 13:07:03 2 day(s)
user 2008/11/22 14:32:52 17 day(s)
user 2008/12/09 16:48:47 <24h
user 2008/11/30 18:49:48 8 day(s)
user 2008/12/08 23:14:37 <24h
user 1969/12/31 19:00:00 14222 day(s)
user 2008/12/08 21:07:58 <24h
user 2008/12/02 22:02:40 6 day(s)
user 2008/12/06 16:38:27 3 day(s)
user 1969/12/31 19:00:00 14222 day(s)
user 2008/12/06 19:30:49 2 day(s)
user 2008/12/09 12:12:28 <24h
user 2008/12/08 03:25:15 1 day(s)
user 2008/02/07 12:33:36 306 day(s)
user 2008/12/07 13:24:13 2 day(s)

However, if we could provide optional threshold values to the "How Long Ago" in days, it would help make it much clearer who's active and who's not.

Example Macro Call:

[[UserStats(threshold(green,7), threshold(yellow,14), threshold(red,999999), etc.)]]

The above example would provide some sort of colour feedback to the table. If the user logged in within the last 7 days, they would be GREEN, in between 7 and 14, YELLOW, more than 14 days RED) (Obviously my idea of the call isn't ideal, but hopefully you get the point.)

I don't think colours are going to be easy as the macro currently relies on wiki formatting to generate the table. However, it should be possible to make it more readable, see #5640...

Possible alternatives:

  • sort the users by 'How long ago'
  • generate multiple tables based on thresholds?
