How to highlight as object in the 3d View/Outliner? In a script of mine I want to make an object stand out among the others in the 3D View, so that the user can see which object are affected by it.

I'm open to suggestions, but I was thinking about:


Change the highlight color of the object (like when objects in groups were green) in the 3D View
Change the background color or the Text color of the object's name in the Outliner
This is what the object panel looks like on the right, in the display section you'll find the option i'm talking about
