V6 We need a different highlighting mode for meshes

In v6 we need a different highlighting mode for meshes.
The current highlighting when on chooses an object for the most part works well except when the object is a mesh, then one gets a big yellow mess on screen that obscures the view and the model. Especially when editing the mesh models texture one can’t even see the change until you deselect the mesh and then reselect to continue editing.
We should have and option to highlight just the silhouette of the mesh with a bold lit up outline this way we could still see the mesh. Maybe there is already a setting somewhere?

Now that we’re in the age of alpha, maybe just tone it down with 80% transparency?

Hi Pascal,
I think I recall you talking about this in the past, glad you made the request as well.
