I'd add sufficiently high boiling point to the list of desired

What properties? Specific heat for one.  A high boiling point is part of
the story but the heat energy (calories or BTU) required to raise a
quantity of the fluid to the boiling point is important too.
I think the brake fluid will probably handle the job.
 
 
 High flash point, now that I think about it.  Gasoline is a pretty good 
insulator, but a poor choice as dielectric fluid.
 
Does anybody have an opinion about using brake fluid ?
 
 
Anything that is non-corrosive, non-conductive, and reasonable
viscosity would probably work.
