For me, hiding the selection when inactive is the best and a
visible but dimmed (or desaturated) selection is not as good but still
reasonable. Not differentiating at all between active and inactive is
poor behaviour. It should always be really clear where your typing is
going to go. One indication of this is the caret and there should only
be one caret visible on the screen but that is a very small indication
and can be lost on bigger monitors. Secondary indications such as
window title bars require more navigational thinking. The selection is
often a better indication of where your typing will go.
