don't forget plain css:

div.o_form_editable div[name="yourfield"]:not(.o_readonly_modifier) input {
    background: red!important;
}

or combine this with the conditional bootstrap classes
div[name="yourfield"].text-danger {
    background: red!important;
}

Up until v15 a form would have class o_form_model_name, which made it easy to 
make this model specific. For ancient Odoo for exactly this use case I made
https://github.com/OCA/web/tree/6.1/web_widget_classes
which you might want to resurrect and rename for this purpose.

But if you go into the module writing business for this anyways, probably 
better patch
https://github.com/OCA/OCB/blob/17.0/addons/web/static/src/views/fields/
field.js#L133
and allow something like
<field name="yourfield"  o-class-yourclass="expression" />
which would be much more versatile
