> I barely pass the mouse on top of my highlight and disappear.
suggests that you want a tool tip like that previewing an annotation text or a link destination to stay visible for a longer duration? This is a Qt-provided default though that is not controlled by the highlight duration setting. That setting is meant for temporary highlights shown if a file is opened with SyncTeX information from a text editor.
I am considering to use the setting to also control display duration of the page item tool tips, but I am wary of override the Qt-supplied defaults unconditionally and it would be a bit of abuse of notation so to speak.
