This is expected, although it's not clear to me whether this the
wished behavior.

1. mouse click on the feature -> control 1 selects the feature
2. mouse over the feature -> control 2 highlights the feature ->
"featurehighlighted" triggers
3. mouse out of feature -> control 2 detects that another control
(control 1) had highlighted the feature before it highlighted it
itself, so it uses that control to highlight the feature the way it
was highlighted before it highlighted it itself ->
"featureunhighlighted" does not trigger

Do you (or others) think we should trigger "featureunhighlighted"
after the call to theOtherControl.highlight()?

See attached patch (untested).
