I'm not sure what the term for this is...
In C-mode, when the user types a close curly bracket, Emacs briefly
highlights the matching open curly bracket.
I'm having an annoyance with HTML / XML mode.
If I type out something like the following:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>My Web Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<br />
<h1>Heading</h1>
...
When I type the slash in /h1, Emacs briefly highlights the slash in br/.
(Other close tags don't trigger any such This is incorrect, and is
getting very annoying. What's going on, and how can I stop it?
(Acceptable behaviors would be "Don't highlight anything" and "Highlight
the appropriate open tag".)

It looks like a bug in sgml-slash-matching. Please M-x report-emacs-bug.
You can disable it with
(add-hook 'sgml-mode-hook (lambda () (local-set-key "/" nil)))
tho you may actually prefer to use `nxml-mode' for HTML files.
E.g. with
(defalias 'html-mode 'nxml-mode)
