Steps to reproduce

slap

            "unfocusedAppearance": {
                "background": "#888888"
            }

in a profile

Expected Behavior

Maybe there's a way we can not switch to the unfocused appearance when the control is removed from the UI tree entirely? IIRC we were talking about doing a similar thing to prevent the DxRender from doing anything when the tab is inactive

Actual Behavior

Switching between tabs with the same profile briefly flashes the gray color as it fades to the active color. It doesn't look great :confu
