Well another example for feedback overkill is again from windows. I all windows version XP onwards, whenever you install a new program, All programs in start menuis highlighted to show that a new program has been installed. The point is untill you access that program from the start menu it will be shown highlighted, even if you have used it many times from your desktop. Its kind of annoying that you should access each program through start menu atleast once to remove that.
