Considering menu icons, you must not overdo it and provide an icon for each
and every item. Having this, icons can speed up item localization in larger
(>5) lists. However, icons should still be somewhat useful and appropriate
--- and not using an icon for the sake of itself.

For the shadow: Discovering the currently active window (and keyboard focus)
at a glance should be a must-have in such a working environment.

Still, there are so many different working styles out there. And people got
used to so many stuff... ;-)

Best,
Marcel
