#### Change the aura colour if you can't interact with an item right now

You know how things you can interact with have a blue aura when you get near them? But sometimes you open up the menu and it's all greyed out because you already dug that peat bog today, or you harvested the tree _and_ it's been watered and petted recently. If the aura were a different colour, you'd know you couldn't interact with it, and you wouldn't spend time waiting for the menu to open.
Only snag with that is that you can rename animals as much as you like, as far as I can tell, so you'd still have a live option in the menu for those even after you've maxed everything else. But it might help save time and server cycles for other objects.
I'd still want to be able to open the menu even if I couldn't interact, just so that I can see what options might be available later and why they're inactive now. So just disabling the menu or replacing it with a message wouldn't work.

- Or just do the unholy aura even if it still has only useless things, like Info and Rename.

- Great idea - it would be especially helpful for those on slower connections.

- I have no idea if this is even feasible from a coding standpoint, but wouldn't it be cool if we could customize what actions triggered a blue glow? That way if I never want to rename an animal it wouldn't show up blue for me, for example.

- I would like auras to indicate different Levels of players. By the time I click on the person and "Info", they have leaped away... I like to give lower level players fun gifts, but they're gone before I can get their Info, let alone gift them something...
