Subject: 24.1.50; Background color in selected and non-selected windows
Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2012 14:41:01 +0200

Severity: wishlist.

I'd like to be able to customize Emacs so that the selected window in
a frame had a different background color than the not-selected windows
in that frame.

This would make the selected windows to stand out over the others,
thus making very easy to see where the "focus" is.

Currently, the background color is defined by the background color of
the "default" face.  So, maybe a way of implementing this would be to
define a "default-inactive" face (similar to the "modeline" versus
"modeline-inactive" faces).

TIA.
