There is a script for coloured pacman output somewhere on BBS. You can also include one of repo/cache cleanup scripts (based on filename matches) that available on ML and BBS. (and adding to git would be nice)
The coloured pacman output appears to be a patched version of the pacman frontend, not a script. http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=29624 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=11827
AFAIR there was some script that grabbed pacman's output and coloured it, or it was just for some operations only (or maybe I've just confused something), nevermind.
The cache clean-up script that I found is: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=330422#p330422 The script does not seem ready (with the big warning at the top and all...) so I am against including it at the moment. I'll wait and see if that functionality makes it into pacman and if not then consider including it when its ready.
