Summary0008909: MIDI region decrease saturation when disabled
DescriptionSometimes when rearranging a track we need to disable some audio or MIDI regions, and Ardour today only shows a slight different color in the waveform and a simple "!" sign in the MIDI region name.
It would be interesting to have a more pronounced visual feedback of the status of the regions to speed up the work.

Sometimes we have Audio and Midi regions disabled in the same view, but it is difficult to distinguish them.

Ardour uses transparency to indicate audibly transparent regions (hear data on layers underneath). Also the default track/region-colors are already rather desaturated to be easier on the eye when working long hours.

However thanks to https://github.com/Ardour/ardour/pull/706 the exclamation mark has been replaced with a large "mute" icon which already helps significantly.
