The highlighting of the current display line when the CV window doesn't have focus is more of an issue for me. I like to use the Tab key to move between 'panels' - if the display line highlight was only shown when CV has KB focus I would know when I landed on it, as it is now I often inadvertently insert Tabs in the text.
