  Unable to recognize active pane

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: banshee

I have noticed that Banshee does not seem to follow the way other apps in Ubuntu highlight items, or show the active pane; normally apps highlight items using an orange colour, which changes to grey when that pane (or the whole app) is not focused.

Instead, Banshee seems to use orange for all panes, the focused one as well as the unfocused, and shows which pane is focused by drawing a second border inside it. This deviation from the norm makes more difficult to guess what will happen if you press a given key (e.g. the tab key or a direction key), so using the standard way would be beneficial.
