I'm in a file tha doesn't appear in the tabs (it should). In case it appears, you can't distinguish that tab from the others. (207.46 KB, image/jpeg)

Description alvarolucas 2015-12-04 05:03:58 UTC 
Hi,
I'm unable to distinguish which file / tab am I. 
All the tabs look pretty much the same being very difficult to distinguish which one is the active one. 
Could active file's tab have other background color to distinguish it from the rest? or maybe have a wider border/frame? or in colored border...
Now I have to  do Ctrl + Home to go to the beginning of the file, see the class/file name and go back to continue working. 
Thank you very much in advance
Kind regards

This is a fragment of an screenshot.
My current tab should be visible and remarked in order to show me where am I.
