I am trying to highlight certain areas of the main html page from inside a
FB extension.

The area might be composed of multiple nodes of different nodeType. I have
tried to use the Firebug.Inspector.highlightObject() function that accepts
an array of elements. So far so good.

The problem I have is that if I higlight a node of nodeType == 3 (a text
node) the highlightObject() does not highlight the area of the text, but it
highlights the parentNode, and that completely screw the purpose of my
extension, which is marking certain areas of the inspected page.

Is that a wanted behaviour? I was thinkig to wrap it with a <span> tag, but
I would like to avoid any alteration of the original page. How could I limit
the highight to the text node?

Thank you in advance.
