The thumbnails are highlighted on hover and on focus. However, the default theme does not tell you which tab is the selected tab. This can be an issue when a user has many tabs open and a number of them look the same in thumbnail view. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set browser.allTabs.previews to true. 2. Open several tabs. 3. Click on AllTabs button. Actual Results: All tab previews on AllTabs preview pane have the same format. Expected Results: AllTabs preview pane should show which tab is currently selected. In skinning the AllTabs pane for my themes I was unable to find a way to show the selected tab's preview in a distinct format.
