In every project I set the color to "Set for all subtasks" and Set for everyone". If there's a way to make this default, I haven't found it. That should certainly be available.
Even more basic is that the checkboxes for those should STAY checked so I know I've done that task. Occasionally I miss it and my assistant is seeing different colors for some reason, and that's confusing. Not a big deal, but definitely sub-optimal and not what I'd expect as an interface element.
