Title:
  Consider enabling --color by default

Status in iproute2 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The output of

  ip --color a

  looks a lot nicer to me than

  ip a

  
  If you look in /etc/skel/.bashrc you can see that we already enable color for other commands:
   alias ls='ls --color=auto'
   alias grep='grep --color=auto'
   alias fgrep='fgrep --color=auto'
   alias egrep='egrep --color=auto'
