So, if I understand it,  you are suggesting having two minor modes:   
highlight-changes-mode and highlight-changes-visible-mode?  Isn't  
that going to be a bit confusing??

If highlight-changes-mode were on then the meaning of the new mode is  
straight forward,  but if it were off should it just toggle the flag  
and otherwise have no effect?  So it affects highlight changes mode  
either immediately if that mode is on otherwise the next time it is  
turned on?  I can try and it see what it's like.

Do other people think that's the way to go?

Richard
