Someone is welcome to correct me on this, but I think your best bet is to separate the geometry you want by you color choice and then bake them to separate layers. That is to say you would be able to bake the Red to Layer 01, Blue to Layer 02, etc.

You can colour objects like srfs, crvs, pts and mesh vertices using the Custom Preview Component in GH but when you bake you will need to use something else to bake with attributes. see Giulio's blog.

Here is another way, but you need to preset your layers:
