Yes, this was one good feature we lost in the switch to nomos.   Rather than 
doing pattern matching on entire licenses, nomos just looks for signatures 
(regular expressions in context).  So it isn't possible to highlight the whole 
license (nomos doesn't know it).  

Personally, I would like nomos to at least highlight where it found the 
signature match.  That would at lead your eyes to where the license was found, 
just not highlight the whole license.  What do you think?

How important is this to you compared to the other items in 
http://fossology.org/task_list#everything_else ?

Thanks,
Bob Gobeille
