It's amazing! It will be one of the best feature of GNOME 2.18 :-)

Could be interesting provide a couple of options for window titlebar
too. For example you could custom the current Clearlooks color scheme to
use a violet for selected, and a green for titlebars.

I know that GNOME philosophy is keep it simple, but without the ability
to change window titlebar colors, future reviews of GNOME 2.18 will say:
"color changing could be the the best feature of GNOME 2.18, but
titlebars are unsupported :-(" :-P
