Have you considered using tags? There’s a setting that allows specific tags to be used by Staff only, which you could use:

As well, going to the tag url would display all of the topics that you’ve applied that tag to. Taking it one step further, you could also use CSS to color that tag specifically so that it’s easy to spot. Something like this, where digested is replaced with the tag you want to use:

```
.tag-box a[data-tag-name="digested"] {
    background: #ea1d1d;
    color: #fff;
}

```

Example:

EDIT: Rafael got to it as I was posting this!
