I sometrimes use the highlighter to temporarily mark passages for
corrections at a later time, but then, when I'm finished rewriting, I can't
get rid of the highlight without using the format brush. This wouldn't be a
problem except that much of the material has formatted characters
(subscripts and the like), and these get wiped out by the format brush. Is
there a way to make the highlight go away without losing all other
formatting?

From Word Help:

Remove highlighting from part or all of a document

1.. Select the text you want to remove highlighting from, or
press CTRL+A to select all of the text in the document.
2.. On the Formatting, click the arrow next to Highlight, and
then click None.

You could also select the text, then Insert > Comment.
This will highlight the text, you can make a note to
yourself, and when you are done, right click the
highlighted text and delete the comment.
