I came up with an idea to mitigate the confusion: vary the default background color of each window. With a dark theme, each window would have a slightly different colored dark background. Like with dvm, the first line (of the terminal) would be the title bar for the active window. The cursor should be an easily-distinguished color to help see which window is active. I'm not sure how easy this is to implement. -Mark
