        Crawl has a couple of prefixes defined to make inventory colouring
        easier. These are:
           inedible      (you cannot eat this or get no nutrition from it)
           poisonous     (chunks/corpses that are poisonous)
           mutagenic     (chunks/corpses that are mutagenic)
           contaminated  (chunks/corpses that may cause sickness, but
                          ignored for Kobolds, Ogres, Trolls, and Ghouls)
           rot-inducing  (chunks/corpses that cause rotting)
           equipped      (equipped items)
           artefact      (item is an artefact, whether identified or not)

          menu_colour = inventory:lightred: cursed.*(worn|neck|hand|weapon)
          menu_colour = inventory:green:(worn|neck|hand|weapon)

          menu_colour = inventory:lightred:equipped.* cursed
          menu_colour = inventory:green:equipped

        or, if menu_colour_prefix_id is true,
          menu_colour = inventory:white:identified.*artefact
