If I understand you correctly, what you want to color links based on the link characteristics - e.g. you want to associate link with a group
(color) and group (color) to have global significance.

Sure, you can do that, but I do not see a direct relationship to SR, e.g. I would not add the group-id to the Adj-SID sub-TLV. You can define a new sub-TLV for the group-id distribution and advertise it in the Extended link TLV.
