background color for selected item

studgeek

I personally would find it very useful to be able to give the selected item a background-color. When switching back and forth I often take a while to find it. I know ^G will temporarily highlight it, but I would like a light highlight all the time as a CSS option.. Perhaps one for the active pane item and another one for the item in inactive panes (so it can be a little less bright). Thx!

I know it would be extremely useful to highlight a selected email that is showing in the email message pane even after changing focus to another pane and have requested that. I can see how it could be useful to do this for outline items whenever you need to switch your attention back and forth between 2 panes.
