Success! This is the extremely simple addon I wrote just now.
I run the 4 shammies on a second comp and monitor so this is perfect for me.
It makes the follow text big and bright yellow on my slave screens (with shadowed outline).
On breaking follow, it displays huge red text that fades away as normal.

PHP Code:
function PM_BigFollow_OnLoad()
  
this:RegisterEvent("AUTOFOLLOW_BEGIN");
  
this:RegisterEvent("AUTOFOLLOW_END");
end;

function 
PM_BigFollow_OnEvent(event)
  if 
PM_IsSlave(UnitName("player")) then
    
if event == "AUTOFOLLOW_BEGIN" then
      AutoFollowStatusText
:SetFontObject(NumberFont_Outline_Huge);
      
AutoFollowStatusText:SetTextHeight(40);
      
AutoFollowStatusText:SetTextColor(1.01.00.01.0);
    elseif 
event == "AUTOFOLLOW_END" then
      AutoFollowStatusText
:SetFontObject(NumberFont_Outline_Huge);
      
AutoFollowStatusText:SetTextHeight(80);
      
AutoFollowStatusText:SetTextColor(1.00.00.01.0);
    
end;
  
end;
end
