'columnVisibility' button color when selected?

I am using jQuery-UI for styling and 'colvis' to create a list of items to toggle column visibility.
I am excluding some of the columns from the default list -- and then grouping them via 'columnVisibility' with their own name.
The standard columns in the list have class "ui-state-active" added when the column is visible (which changes their color).
However, this does not get applied for the grouped item (columnVisibility button) in the list.
How can I achieve this?
Below is an example. Click "Name" and it's color changes. Click "Grouped columns" and it's color does not change -- and I want it to.
I see the following javascript error in the console:
TypeError: settings.aoColumns[column] is undefined
error source line:
return settings.aoColumns[ column ].bVisible;

Ignore the javascript error (just indexing error on my part in the example) & update:
Original question still stands.
I have implemented a fix by extending the code and adding the last line shown here to the 'action' method for the 'columnVisibility' button:
Thanks for posting this. There is actually an error at the moment whereby the grouped visibility toggle only basis its visible state from a single column, and I think this is the same issue. I hope to get that fixed for the next release.
