The feature is: The colour of submission status of summary represent what kind of language the person use.
I'm very depressed to know it so lately...

me also don't know it before your post :(
And you can actually configure it in your Arena settings. I think default setup assigns the same color to several languages, which I find misleading.
What about pretty (radio)button ? After near 50 contests i don't know what does it do. When i click on or off nothing changes.
I have always wondered what the buttons are for as well.
"The TopCoder Arena has code-beautification functionality built in for those that wish to use it. In the Room Summary Window, setting Pretty to On in the upper-right corner will cause subsequent source code view to incorporate basic code formatting rules. For some languages and some submissions, the Pretty option will have no effect." — https://community.topcoder.com/tc?module=Static&d1=help&d2=roomSummary
As of now this button has no effect
We can color status of standing by used programming language in Codeforces too. This tool is available here
