*Feature Request* Surface Base Color

I have a request..not sure if it can be done or if it's easy. But would be a nice workflow enhancement for me.

Could the octane plugin automatically change (maybe if the feature check box was on, as some may not want this) the LW base color that modeler shows? So as we are setting up surfaces in Octane Nodes, adding Diffuse or Glossy could those colors also change the LW Color that modeler shows.

Or even better I guess....could modeler use/show the diffuse that have been setup in Octane Nodes? Just a visual enhancement to working with objects/surfaces in modeler if the material wasn't also setup to some level with native LW color option.

I'll sometimes have all white materials in modeler if I don't also set the color box in LW native surfaces. This makes it hard after things have been setup to get a visual representation of what surfaces are on what objects etc...
