EPub: Sort of. (WTF is "bottom two lines" of a display? ePub can't tell how big a screen you're using to read. But it can probably place a floating box that follows the scroll down the screen.)
Sony's ePub rendering software: no. Not floating, and not "text highlight color;" e-ink screens have your choice of about half-a-dozen shades of gray for text backgrounds. It's always very noticeable; there isn't any subtle, non-obtrusive highlighting.
One of the current problem with ePub is that, while the spec itself supports a great deal of flexibility in layout & features, not all ePub readers support all those.
