No.  This is not about buffers; this is about _windows_.

I miss a simple way of making the _selected_window_ stand out clearly
(e.g. by displaying its contents with a somewhat brighter background
than the rest of the windows), in a similar way of what is currently
implemented for the selected/unselected modelines.

Well, currently I don't know how to build this feature in such way.
Also, I filed this feature request in the hope of having a simple way
of enabling such functionality, which (some day) could be implemented
upstream, so that all users would benefit from it (I believe that many
users would like it).
