You can write your own DAS server, then add parameters to attach this DAS
server to the URL, specifying some sort of ID to the track name which will
trigger the highlighting when the DAS server sees it.

Not really easy to implement, but possible. I've done something similar
recently.

I wonder if there is a simpler way...

cheers
