To expand on @ownedbycats solution, there is no way for a coloring template to change the value of a field. The only fields that can change value dynamically are "columns built from other columns" (often referred to as "composite columns"). Action chains can change the value of a column based on the value of some other column. Personally, I would use a composite for this.

2) Very long shot, but just in case, is there some sort of key for the column colorization? Even upon hover? For example, my series column is set to 3 different colors. One for if series is complete, one for if it is not, and one for undefined. It would be nice if I hover over the series title, the rule applied to it would appear. Such as 'wolfgang [5] : 'true/false/null'. But better yet, I would love something like a Key with squares below the tool bar/above the search bar that showed the colors you've put in your rules, and text either below, or on hover, which says which rule it represents. You guys probably just remember what your colors mean, but I have goldfish brain.

There is no way to change the tooltip (the "hover" text) for a column.
However,, you can use a composite to do something close: show some explanatory text in another (composite) column. Create the composite column and have the template return whatever you want based on the content of the "source" column. Place the composite column next to the source column then make it very narrow. The tooltip for the composite will show your explanatory text without taking a lot of screen space.
