Nice tut, and yeah I too, would've expected some gradient tool to be used, and i thought this would've been longer, but it's quite short and simple! Nice Tut mate!

On the text layer, use the polygon lasso tool to make the shape for the highlighting bar. I used a 45 degree slash, make the thickness of the bar about the same as one of the vertical elements of your text. i.e. About the same thickness as a lowercase "L" would be in your text. Go to the "Select" menu and use the "Feather" option to feather your selection by 2 pixels. Now create a "Brightness/Contrast" layer and set the brightness to 100%. You should end up with a feathered bright bar sitting on top of your text as shown below.
