That is a normal function of this camera. It is designed to let you know when parts of the picture are overexposed which suggests you might want to change the exposure. You might want to try taking a series of pictures from -1ev to 0 to +1ev and watch what the highlight/picture flashing function does.

The advantage of "bracketing" as Larry mentioned above, is that you can then take all three exposures and stitch them into one master photo (this is called High Dynamic Range or HDR). The result is a very cool, yet surrealistic depiction of the subject. To see this in action, check out Flickr and search for HDR. You'll see some really awesome HDR images.
