Short description of error
When using Transfer Mode on Alt Q, it will switch the active object and keep the same mode as on the previous one. It's used to switch between objects while in for example sculpt mode or edit mode quickly.
An orange overaly is flashing to show the switch. Since a recent version this is now also happening on the active object.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

Add multiple objects to your scene
Enter sculpt mode on one of them
Point at another object and press Alt Q
Now try pointing at the active object and press Alt Q (It's also flashing, even though nothing changed)

Can confirm the behavior (even though it is in the grey area of not being a bug -- I mean, does this really do harm?)
