Who, me?  The flashing bothers me not at all, though there will surely
be people it does bother.  I think you're referring to the feature in CC
Mode where unterminated strings are font-locked to match their error
syntax, i.e. the string face ends at the next unescaped EOL.  This is a
static feature, not a dynamic one like João has just developed.  The two
features are not closely related.
