We discuss some recent results in graph coloring that show somewhat stronger conclusions in a similar parameter range to traditional coloring theorems. We consider the standard setup of list coloring but ask for a decomposition of the lists into pairwise-disjoint list colorings. The area is new and we discuss many open problems.
