What has to be done is simply adding something like:
.nautilus-inactive-pane .view {
background-color: shade (@bg_color, 0.8);
}
in the gtk-3.0/apps/nautilus.css file for the Ambiance theme. Varying
the coefficient (0.8) will make it lighter/darker. Or we could use
another color instead of the default bg_color.
After doing some googling, it seems that the extra pane does not exist
in Nautilus 3.6 (https://live.gnome.org/Nautilus/Roadmap/3.6 and there's
also a discussion here http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/08/ubuntu-12-10
-may-ship-with-older-but-more-featured-nautilus). Probably this is why
the styling was removed from Adwaita trunk. So, we should ask around if
Ubuntu plans to stay with 3.4 for raring, otherwise this bug has no
relevance.

Title:
Nautilus's split pane lacks an indicator for the active pane
Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
Confirmed
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Test case:
Open Nautilus on any folder.
Split pane using the F3 key.
Click on an empty area on any pane.
Both panes look the same, and its difficult (if not impossible) to know which
panel is the active one.
If you have a folder or a file selected, you can use the selection indicator
to get a clue, but even in this situation you can miss it and operate on the
wrong file/folder.
