Maximilian,
Awesome! That is helpful, and I also think it would be helpful to have something like that on the generic selection tool (of course turned off be default, but available).
I don't have the same problem with the selection not being highlighted when coming out from the middle of the path - maybe you fixed it before I grabbed svn...
One request I would make is to either make the highlight period longer (say, twice as long as current) or give the option to set a time/indefinite time highlight length.
Thanks!

Cool, good work! Indeed, as Aubanel wrote, this is especially great with clipped paths.
However, I just tried it and thought the new feature was extremely buggy until I discovered that I had drawn a path whose fill color was set to white (so it wasn't apparent that its interior was filled). Then when I moved the mouse on canvas, the flashing seemed to randomly appear and disappear. Of course, it always appeared when I was over the filled part and disappeared when I left the filled area but that was not immediately clear to me because I expected it to appear only when I was near the actual path.
So my question is: Would it be possible to let the flashing occur only when the mouse pointer is near the path's stroke? Otherwise it can even happen that you move the pointer near the path but the flashing _doesn't_ appear (for example, when you have a nearly circular filled path; when you enter the filled area, it flashes, but when you afterwards approach the path from the inside, it doesn't).
Thanks and cheers, Max
