Your question is understandable in case of `next-error' where cursor
lands directly on the subject line.  The suggested user control is
useful in case of `next-error-no-select' which is used in Grep mode.
When traveling through matched lines in *grep* buffer the
highlighting happens in the source buffer where there is no
indication is left after highlighting is gone.
