But if the user edits a cell and clicks a b...

I have come up against a limitation/bug, however, that I'm hoping someone will be able to help me with.

Using the script.aculo.us Effect.Highlight on an onMouseOver event works perfectly - if the user only mouses over the DIV once. If they mouse back over the DIV during the execution of the effect, another Effect gets scheduled (or runs in parallel, depending on whether or not {queue: 'end'} is enabled). Does script.aculo.us have a ...
