different headerbar color when window is active/unactive

moved (again) from themix-project/themix-plugin-base16#6
hope this is the right place now...

is there an option/would it be possible to have an option to indicate a different color for the headerbar when its window is active and unactive?
i tried to change WM_BORDER_{UN,}FOCUS but that did not have any effect:
i have a script which does the same as oomox-gui: using the base16 plugin to generate colors which i pipe to change_color.sh. i have a file which contains additional variables.
i set WM_BORDER_FOCUS (i didn't commit it) to 000000 but i see no change in the headerbar' colors

isn't it the same thing as here? #18

i see that i can monkey patch the scss files to get the effect i want, but shouldnt there be a variable to do that?

yup, you can add one, but it should be then in sync with all the parts of the theme, not just for one toolkit

actually, no, it seems that setting titlebar_bg_unfocused doesnt do anything, the titlebar's color when unfocused stays the same when focused (however, changing titlebar_bg_focused does work)
