Instead of the black outline, maybe use an icon that follows the cursor (or change the cursor itself), when it hovers a microformat, indicating "Context click here to interact with the microformat". This way you avoid changing/overlaying the web page while still making the microformat somewhat discoverable. --Dikrib 06:44, 4 February 2007 (PST)
