[mockup] block and element highlighting

[mrjacobbloom]

I had an epiphany a couple hours ago and threw together this mockup:

I have code that works but it's dependent on #249 and could use some refinement

[mrjacobbloom]

let me know what you think-- is this a direction you'd want to explore?

Yep.
Perhaps you could push a fork of your repo branch (but containing this feature) to here?

This looks nice! A few thoughts:

1. Make it toggleable (turn the feature on/off)
2. Highlight both the element and the block, not one or the other.

Other than that, I'm loving this feature!

I pushed what I have to Airhogs777/elemental:element-highlighting (diff). Keep in mind that this is a really rough implementation and it'll need some work to do things like garbage collection

1. Make it toggleable (turn the feature on/off)
2. Highlight both the element and the block, not one or the other.

good ideas, I'll experiment with both

Aagh sorry, out of habit I pushed to my own repo instead of this one. When I create a PR it'll be on this repo

[mrjacobbloom]

I deleted my elemental repo to simplify future PRs, the code for this is now in the branch element-highlighting on this repo

Perhaps there should be rounded corners around the gold outline? outline-radius doesn't seem to be standardized, so maybe we should use border instead of outline?

[mrjacobbloom]

Okay, I'll experiment with this a little when I have a free moment
