Bug Description
We have the option to always show the outline for a selected path, and to temporarily flash path outlines when mousing over other paths with the Node tool. There should also be an option to temporarily flash a path outline when a path is actually selected for editing.
Flashing the outline on mouseover is convenient, but can incur a visual delay depending on path complexity, other nearby objects (etc). Always showing the outline for selected paths is useful, but sometimes annoying depending on the outline's color relative to the path's own stroke width and color.
