--- Comment #4 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
The color inversion works well in all cases. But it feels obtrusive to me when
the black font on white background switches to white on black. Would be better
to just "shade" the background.

I would abstain from delays and unclear dependencies when the highlighting
happens. Assuming the user wants to know where this particular field is, any
delay of the feedback would be awkward. Or what Seth writes with "I am assuming
that nothing has changed" after 'emphasize entry only when entry's object is
overlaid'.

My first impression was to switch it off (because of the string contrast) or to
only blink once or twice and go back to the normal view. But in the end there
are not so many scenarios where the cursor rests over an entry in the Navigator
and users probably want to know where this item is. With a more subtle
visualization it could be a nice feature.

(Wanted this for the Styles Highlighter in order to detect where a particular
PS/CS and DF is used.)
