Build Identifier: 

I would like to have a way to quickly identify which theme I have enabled by having it be highlighted or something.  Its hard to spot in a list of 30 or so items.  It would probably also help our Disability case here too.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install lots of personas
2. Install several themes
3. enable a different theme by default
Actual Results:  
Its hard to locate in the list which is themes, and which are personas and which one is enabled without checking either for the button which is changed or the wording doesn't have (disabled)

Expected Results:  
 Either it should be shown at the very top which one is enabled, or just have the item stand out like Extensions, maybe it could be green or something.

I should be able to identity what I have in less than 1 scroll through the entire list.  Currently it takes too long to find, since I was looking for my current theme which I wanted to share feedback with the developer.

Right. But for the final solution we need bug 520124 fixed.

I'd still call this fixed - regardless of whether bug 520124 is fixed or not, the current theme is now very obvious.

Ok, so lets mark it as verified then. You are right, the highlight exists.

I assume we have a couple of automated tests? In any way this will also be a sub-step of a litmus test.

The testable code is tested, though there's no new tests specifically for this bug. Its hard to test whether something looks good, which was 99% of that work. The litmus test would be something like "disabled extensions/plugins/themes look dimmed/grey, enabled extensions/plugins/themes do not".
