Interesting point of view :-).

Anyway, I find the way by creating a span elemen with the textContent of the
text node, switching it with the plain text node and caching both nodes.
With the span in place, the highlightObject() creates the highlight box also
for the span, then I switch back the original text in place of the span so
the code get restored (you didn't even notice the double-switch), but now
the additional highlight boxes are in place. ;-).
