[Damien Cassou <damien.cassou@xxxxxxxxx>]

Public bug reported:

When pressing [Super+W] the user is presented with all the windows
currently opened. Each window is easily accessible using mouse or
keyboard arrows. Unfortunately, all windows are by default presented the
same way which make it very difficult to know which window is currently
selected and thus very difficult to navigate with the keyboard.

I think the selected window should be presented differently from others.
This can be easily done by, for example, changing the 'opacity'
preference from the Scale plugin from 100% to 70%. That way, all but the
selected window are presented slightly transparent.
