Display Navigation Dimming

Hi.

I'm using Gimp 2.7.3 on Linux.

The display navigation dockable dialog has everything outside the highlighted area dimmed. If you have a dual monitor set up it is useful to use the display navigation as a full image on the second monitor while working on details on say (especially) a Cintiq which is what I have. There is no option to change this dimming. In the Git/gimp/app/widgets directory there is gimpnavigationview.c. In this file there appears to be text controlling this appearance to do with Cairo. It looks like the alpha value can be changed. Can anyone confirm this? I may just recompile to test it. I think this should be an option within the display navigator similar to the highlight checkbox when making selections.
