Edit: probably works in their php, django and rails ide-s.

PhpStorm has this ability - and I've turned it off.

Too much colors for my blood, and it doesn't look good against Solarized.

One thing I really enjoy about this IDE is the indentation level markers - basically lines draw down to show you where the current scope ends (braces, parens).
