Thanks for the answer. Your solution and the possibility to extend
"Inspect" sounds interesting. :)

Is there perhaps also a HTML-equivalent to make an element
transparent
to pass all mouse events straight through (I don't think so, but
asking doesn't hurt ;) ) ?

I've found another possible way while searching via Google:

//hide upper div
sender.style.display="none";
//get div directly beneath clicked one.
var lowerDiv = document.elementFromPoint(event.clientX,
event.clientY);
//restore upper div
sender.style.display="block";

Perhaps that helps, but probably a flickering border will be seen.
Anyway I'll try it. And then there is also the possibility of a
simplified version of your solution.

I'm wondering if, like John said, the current "Inspect" solution is
"'just' a mouseover handler for the web page. The
highlights are elements added to the page and moved around as the
mouse moves" how the z-index/mouseover-
problem is solved there.
