--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Yup, seems reasonable. But applying the "no fill" to remove highlighting is not
really the issue. 

Rather, the issue is selecting the text with background highlighting you need
to correct.  We can double-click select an entire word, but we miss any
over-shoot of the highlighting.

What might be more functional would be to provide for text selection based on
highlighted state, so rather than double-click select, provide a <Shift>-double
click to select highlighted block. Don;t know if there is a clear HIG
suggestion, but something along that line.

Mode test would be highlighted vs. paragraph default.

While at it, might also look at the same for changing font color, which we now
select and set back to "Automatic" to clear its color.

Over to ux-advise for comment, suggestions.
