Feature request: Save the selection of "Surprise Me On Startup" #582

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
My problem is that I open many folders because I use git worktrees extensively. I use "Surprise Me On Startup" to avoid setting a color every time. My problem is that those colors aren't sable.

Describe the solution you'd like
Add an option to automatically store the selection done by "Surprise Me On Startup".

Describe alternatives you've considered
Another alternative I considered was deriving the color from the path to the workspace. For example, hash it and use it to create a color, or to generate the index to the favorites array.

Additional context
I think this is more important now, because worktrees are getting very popular due to coding agents. You can have many vscodes with the same repo, and create new ones all the time. Peacock is great to quickly distinguish them. Automating this step will be even better.
