For the record, you can toggle off the path highlighting/outline with one of the buttons on the node editing toolbar (you can even change the color of it in preferences).
Thank you! Actually, now I suspect it's a bug... (unless it's one of those "features").
Whether the "Show the outline of the path" is on or off, when you're in edit mode, the red outline flickers on for a second before disappearing again. Since it happens all the time, it's rather distracting, especially when you have "Show the outline of the path" Off so it's basically blinking all the time whenever you're mouse-over or editing the path.
It definitely seems like a bug to me. If people want the highlight, they'll have it turned on. So, if you want to file a bug report, I'll confirm it. :)
There is a simple workaround for the moment though. If you go into the preferences for the node tool, you can modify the highlight time to 1ms, which doesn't show the flicker for me.
