Bug Description

is it possible to change the color of the unfocused window border? The way it is now, it's hard to tell at first glance which one is the window in focus, the only difference is the window title being less bright. Would it be possible to have a brighter grey border as opposed to the dark grey border of the window in focus? this would give instant feedback on which window is in focus.

Can you explain further?

Currently, the differences between active and inactive windows are a slight gradient of the selected color, the top highlight line, and title controls, which are all faded in inactive windows.

when you have many windows on your desktop the focused one doesn't really pop out from the rest because focused and unfocused windows are too similar. You can see what I mean in the attached screenshot, on the top you see the human theme, both borders are really different you get instant feedback on which window is in focus, but with dust on a desktop cluttered with windows this kind of feedback is not as quick. (the screenshot is comparing functionality, not.... style..;)
