Design a UI to allow only the elements of the circuit that illustrate a particular problem to be highlighted and/or visible

See also issue 8, which is about user interaction to select sets of things.

This one is about save/restore a list of elements of interest.

We'll want to import the highlight list from the URL, and to offer the list in a URL which can be sent around as a link, and probably want to tie this into 'scenarios' where we somehow feed the url into a wiki page. The wiki page then contains a link to a 'state of play' display, and can accommodate a discussion and explanation of that observation.

Great minds think alike :)

"Selective viewing" is one of the first things I thought of to add, after using the app for only a few minutes, and being overwhelmed by all the info :)

I'm looking at the highlighting code and getting up to speed on how the HTML5 canvas works, in hopes of implementing this :)

Feel free to work on it - fork it, and then send me a pull request once done.

You will need to test it out properly on a number of browsers before putting it up on the website. We have been using the gh-pages feature of github to pass around a test URL for people to work with.
