Click to highlight a folder in the (left) side pane tree. Click to highlight a
file/folder in the (right) main pane. Both highlights appear identical. If you
press delete, which folder will disappear?

Too often this has led to me deleting main tree folders on the left rather than
the single files I have selected within them on the right. This is made more
vexing since one can't undo deletions

Technically there IS a difference: if you are focused on the side pane, the red
highlight is bordered by a light 1px dotted line effect, but this is
near-invisible. HOWEVER, this does at least offer some hope that the focus for
the side pane and the main pane could be more distinct than they are now. This
affects 4 of the 5 default styles - not greybird. Should I post this under a
style bug section?

Thanks
