No mockup necessary - with the right combination of compiz plugins, both app identity and the currently selected window are revealed. You will need the compiz-plugins-extra package and CompizConfig Settings Manager.

App identity:
- Set "Overlay Icon" to "Emblem" in the Scale plugin.
- Set "Window Title Display" to "All Windows" in the Scale Addons plugin.

Selected window:
- Check "Draw Window Highlight".
- Set "Highlight Colour" to Ubuntu Orange (or whatever your preference).

See attached my desktop and approximation of Ubuntu Orange (it's more Ubuntu Tangerine).
