I'm reading andrew's gh2 book.  In it, he mentions assigning rec highlight to a  function key.  I don't see it as an option in the function key assignment menu.  Am I missing something?

You are referring to page 42 "It can also be assigned to a programmable button on the camera body."

I think you are right. Also, the function is not in the Quick-menu. You could combine it with a C1-C3, but I don't recommend it. My advice is to get used to monitor the histogram, which also shows clipping (only not the specific parts of the image, but these shouldn't be hard to find). The histogram can be manually dragged to the least distracting position (i.e. bottom right corner), and in case you don't want it to be displayed permanently, you can access it in the Quick-menu.

Thanks Axel.  I've been using the histogram, but I find zebras handy for quick setup situations.  No big deal, I'll probably just leave the zebra on in those cases.  I thought maybe the hack, which I haven't done yet, enhanced the function key settings.  I guess not.
