Reading the manual reveals the fact that higlighting during dragging
(motion) is just a special case of a button.  ::Style Primitives under
Buttons:: I interpret as sytle primitives for buttons.  Thus you could
potentially have different styles for buttons created for other
applications.

(set-style-foreground motion::style nil)
(set-style-background motion::style nil)
(set-style-underline motion::style (background))

Gives reverse video with no underlining.  Try this and see if it works
for you.
