Synopsis: EiffelStudio editor file tabs colouring

Description
I am always having difficulties in locating the identification of the active file in the editor. That small X icon as indicator is hardly recognizable among many open files.

Suggestion: have the active tab be colourable as other elements within Eiffelstudio, eg background / foreground (aka text) thru Preferences setting.

Just a nice to have, unimportant: it would be nice to have the active tab break and "bleed into" the border lines to the editing area for better visual appeal.

And while I am brainstorming:  While exploring class hierarchies I have many files opened and get to see the >> further files indicator.  My wishlist would include an extension into a second (or configured number thru Preferences) of rows of tabs.
