Window previews in xfwm4

[Stephan Haller]

I agree. Adding the application icon to the window's title will help
finding the window faster than just looking at the title.

I don't know if it just a matter of the theme I'm using (it's greybird)
but the outline of the current selection is hard to see. A very small
black line on a very dark grey background ;)
