Wow ! That's very neat. The effect is outstanding on a clipped path. Would even look better with clip highlight (in a different color ?). Do you plan to make it work on other shapes as well ? However, I happen more often to have troubles when selecting and object than picking it with the node tool (well, most of the time I select fist then go to node tool).
Do you think it's possible for the selector to benefit from the same treatment ?
(Seriously, inkscape and you guys rocks so hard it's hardly believable.)

Quickly:
When you hover over a path in nodetool, it highlights itself briefly
like a helperpath. (this means it only works for things that have a helperpath: paths only for now... work in progress i guess)
When you leave the object with the mouse, it hides instantly.
I haven't add preferences yet, so you cannot turn it off now, sorry;
it's probably pretty annoying if you don't want it.
What preferences do people want?
- on/off
- flash time?
- flash color? ( i don't know how to XOR it, so right now it is
invisible for red stroked paths )
Not an original idea for the record... it was just because you implemented the temporary canvas stuff that I brought it up. AI folk have requested this for a while and will hopefully like this a lot...
As for Preferences:
on/off - necessary flash time - if on, 0 = infinite/until mouse is moved (with a note there) flash color would be cool if doable show nodes would also be nifty
Nice stuff as always Johan! :)
