Public bug reported:

The colorized background of dock icons makes it harder for me to tell
which apps are running. I would prefer that the dock icon backgrounds
remain the same color regardless of icon content, and that the same
color is used across apps to indicate a running app. This would make it
easier at a glance for me to tell which apps are running and which are
not.

Similarly, some applications have rather large dock icons, such as the
Wunderlist browser app. When this happens, there is very little room for
a background color, so any such change in the dock icon when the app
launches / quits is barely noticeable. In the future, could Ubuntu scale
down all dock icons to the same size, allowing for some padding for
background colors?
