I've done this exact thing my my servers. Also like GL I prepend PRODUCTION and STAGING on PS1.

I should probably make the PRODUCTION flash just in case.

You can do that - I actually tried it and everyone on my team agreed that it was bloody annoying, so I made it stop blinking (still red, though).
