I was hoping there was something, perhaps a toggle that can be created, where I can select it and say; "Here are the areas that deal with Security...Here are the areas that deal with Validation...etc...

Any ideas?
One approach could be to add paragraph styles. When you need the highlighting for the boss, include different colours in the style definition; when you just need the content, update the style definitions so they all use the default text colour. (the same technique can sometimes be handy for highlighting changes between versions)
