And AFAICS this is also what most popular starter kits do. So at least to me it's not clear whether it is widely used.better-defaults is an old project which has been there for at least a decade in some form (and has a fair amount of stars on its archived repository on github: https://github.com/technomancy/better-defaults). It's the original "emacs starter kit".
Amusingly, it's the only "better default" that isn't described in the README, and against which there's a open issue: https://github.com/technomancy/better-defaults/issues/27 .
A moving reddish shape should bring enough attention, but of course different users have different levels of sensitivity (as the discussion in bug#47574 has shown). Only a practical experiment can tell.
Moving??? Why do you think this would be better than simply blinking the echo area?
