Bug Description

Once "Window Overview" has been triggered, there is no way to pick a window with the keyboard.
Window Overview should allow the user to navigate through windows with (at least) the keyboard's arrow keys, and pick one with the enter key.

To show selection, we should change the selected window's shadow color to the gtk theme's selected bg color

Hopefully this will get fixed, because it's weird that Workspace Over view (Super + S) has keyboard support, but Window Overview (Super + W or Super + A) does not.
