Update:
The title bar indicator works fine, but still not solves the problem regarding 
opening two maximized Firefox windows.

Title:
  Improve spread windows's (<super>w) focused window indicator

Status in Compiz Core Ubuntu:
  New
Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Description:
  When you spread windows using the <super>w key, the only extra indicator you 
have to know which window is selected is a faint shadow, and sometimes this is 
not enough and makes the spread windows option useless as a selector.

  Test case:
  Open two unmaximized Nautilus windows.
  Spread windows using <super>w
  The selected window has a faint shadow, but also title bar and buttons look 
brighter as an indicator that the window has focus, thats good.

  Now maximize the two windows and <super>w again.
  You now don't have the title bar, but still there is a slight difference 
between focused and unfocused windows.

  Now open two Firefox maximized windows.
  You must rely only on the faint shadow to tell which window is focused.

  What can be done:
  There are currently two stablished indicators to show focused windows. First 
is the orange glow of the alt+tab or alt+~ selectors. The other is compiz's 
window fadeout effect. Any of them can help a lot on the situation above.
