I'm fine with this, this should probably be done around the same time as the tab highlighting rework briefly mentioned in #5412, so we can actually store a bit of information in the highlights, as opposed to just "the tab is highlighted" |

When a particular chat connection encounters an error, it can be quite hard to notice that this has happened. Some error types manifest somewhat randomly (e.g. if you have connected to too many channels—the errors will be scattered across your potentially 100+ tabs based on order of connection), and these can be hard to even notice, let alone find on purpose. Having an appropriate visual indicator is very helpful whenever there is an error which cannot self-resolve.
Suggestion:
Colour will do most of the work, but it's not bad to pair it with a second kind of indicator for reinforcement and so that people who have difficulty telling colours apart can still notice it.
