How about only doing the hover highlighting if a modifier key is held down? I
agree it's distracting, though it is useful at times—it would be nice to have
easy access to it. A secondary, far subtler shading of the hover highlight
might work as well, though on the surface a modifier key sounds right.

I love the new highlight style, btw, which shows padding and margins.

I dislike that fact that the webkit pane is scrolled to move the highlight into
view: I put it where I wanted it, dammit, and I don't like it scrolling around,
which often obscures exactly what I want to inspect.

And at the risk of putting far too much information in this one comment, I
dislike, as ever, the fact that the highlights don't scroll in sync with the
webview.
