I think this looks better too -- but the current escape-glyph face doesn't
stand out very much -- what about "red" foreground instead?

There seems to be a problem with ^X and \nnn if you have setup a
display table to show the ^ or \ -- in that case, the X and nnn is
still shown in the escape-glyph face (rather than the face from the
display property).
I will fix that.

Indeed -- if someone whats to highlight anything else, they should
use a display vector.

Actually, I liked the highlight for ellipses. And to continue your
argument, the ellises are "characters not actually in the text" too.

The escape-glyph face is not merged with the underlaying base face of
the character, so eg. region highlight (background color) or other
face properties are not shown on the escape glyphs.
