How to turn off elpy-multiedit highlight

How to turn off elpy-multiedit highlight

[Tim Johnson]

Using elpy on emacs 24.3.1 on ubuntu 14.04, gui mode.

When I invoke command elpy-multiedit-python-symbol-at-point,
symbols to edit are highlighted. The section of text properties for
the highlight overlay are as follows:
;;
 elpy-multiedit       t
 face                 highlight
 insert-behind-hooks  (elpy-multiedit--overlay-changed)
 insert-in-front-hooks (elpy-multiedit--overlay-changed)
 modification-hooks   (elpy-multiedit--overlay-changed)
;;

How can I turn this overlay highlight off?

Perhaps the larger question would be: Is there a generic way to turn
off any particular highlight?

thanks

  Since the highlight is an overlay, perhaps it is as simple as
  M-: (remover-overlays) 
  ... appears to work, but are there gotchas?
