For historic reasons, the name `#flags` is misleading. It's actually all 
IMAP keywords which includes both the keywords used for tags and other 
other standard or non-standard keywords.

You are seeing a mailbox for every IMAP keywords which exists for any 
message which also has the `\Flagged` keyword.

Yes, you'll see all existing combinations of keywords.

But to answer your question: There is currently no way to do what you 
request. Colored flags are a combination of IMAP keywords (this 
originates from Apple Mail). The best workaround is probably to manually 
create a smart mailbox for each combination of the mail bit flags. 
That'll also allow you to control the exact naming of the mailboxes. 
(Low-level I think it would also be possible to specify the flag images 
for the mailbox icons.)
