More appearant lost of focus

Description

I often find myself typing shell commands in varios programs, because I think that guake has focus. Therefore it would be great to have a more distiguishable different appearance when the focus is lost.

I think that a small change of some colors would do the trick. Or maybe just a gray rectangle around the border in shells background... Anything a little bigger than the current change of the blinking cursor. (Hm, maybe the change of cursors color to red.)

very nice idea, I've typed an ssh password in pidgin and fortunately I saw before sending it because of the same problem =/

After 0.4 release I'll work on that stuff, thanks =)

If you do something about this, please don't mess with cursor colors. Guake pretty much shows standard term behavior as it is, which is a good thing. Cursor colors are changeable by escape sequences and some people (i.e. me ;)) use this.
