Benefits

Better contrast

Possible Drawbacks

You can't see the VCS coloring while the tree-view is in focus. We could potentially add some colored dot/stripe. But maybe in a separate PR.

Applicable Issues

Follow-up of https://github.com/atom/one-light-ui/pull/114#issuecomment-350065311

:+1: this definitely looks better. I wish there was a way to preserve the VCS coloring though without having to resort to dots. What about changing the focused indicator itself to indicate VCS status? Not sure if that would look ok or not.

Tried that out:

tree-view

How do you like it? I think visually it would look ok, just not sure UX wise? If you're used to focus=blue, seeing a different background color throws you off that expectation.
