Styling a custom spreadsheet menu item using Google Apps Script

Question

I have a custom menu on a Google Sheets:

function onOpen() {
  var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
  var csvMenuEntries = [{name: "Save as CSV file", functionName: "saveAsCSV"}];
  ss.addMenu("Save New Emails", csvMenuEntries);    
}

I would like to style the menus I create.

Is this possible and how would one go about it?

All I really want to do is have a custom colour or background for the button to make it stand out.

This isn't supported, but you can add some Unicode symbols to the menu entries' names so they stand out a little from the other options.

Most symbols from this site work: http://copypastecharacter.com/

This is what I've been using to highlight some help menu entries.

I don't think this is supported by the current API.
