Personally when getting closer to "high tier" minecraft (post End ext.) the elytra becomes an extremely useful item. And when collecting multiple of them, it would be amazing to differentiate them in unique ways beside enchantments.
So instead of changing the texture of the elytra itself (which already happens with cape skins) you could add elytra trails to your elytra. This would make it so that when you fly you leave behind a trail of color (and certain particle effect) depending on a certain crafting recipe! This could be through dyes or possibly glowstone dust from the neather (or other materials that I haven't thought of).
These particles could also have the glow effect added to it with the new addition of glow ink sacks from the glowsquid! Then you would be able to see elytra trails during the night.
You could also possibly extend the trail of the elytra with extra crafting recipes as well. Or maybe the elytra could get it's own crafting bench to allow more intricate tinkering!
Also this affect could be temporary as well. So after using your elytra, it wears off after a while, and then you may reapply the trail to it (maybe a different one or the same one.)
I think this would be an awesome addition, especially on servers when you have multiple people flying in the sky!
