Details

I use keyboard navigation a lot when composing mail and I frequently have a hard
time telling when the address-entry control has focus.  It would be nice if
there were a better visual indication, like perhaps changing the background to a
light yellow or something.

Note, this problem is even worse on NS6, which sometimes doesn't even show a
cursor, but I also have trouble on MozMail as well.
It's a standard among textfields to have the blinking caret indicate focus.

Voting for WONTFIX. We don't want to special-case these textfields, because 
then we'll end up with an inconsistent UI.

Also, this could be done by a skin author, if s/he wanted to.
