Make SLO status more clear using Red/Orange indicator (SLOv1)

Customer want to use the big number widget in status dashboard using SLI / SLI data source. While using this if the SLO is less than 100% and greater than 99.95% they wanted to keep an Orange color and for the less than 99.50% they need a Red color.

Business Use case:
We want to setup a Status dashboard using SLI / SLO. We measure our system with more than 50 product KPIs. Its not possible to use SLI graph to show the same. We need some compact version of SLI which is big number. If we get Color thresholding as I did mentioned in ticket earlier then its easy to ucatch the isse on Status page where 50+ SLIs are displayed.
Also there are no alerting available on SLI.

    This is possible for SLOv1 widgets using the Big Number widget (use Service-Level Indicators as the Data source) and configuring threshold based colorisation. This capability is a future consideration for SLOv2, please see this Idea to track that.
    You mentioned alerting. SLO alerting is now available through SLOv2 from r276.
