Description

We can already use the Outline to navigate the headings of my source files.

It would be convenient, if the outline highlight would follow the position of my cursor in the document. This would make it easier to not get lost in the structure of a long document.

Research direction

The issue concerns VSCode's Outline and cursor position, but it names no repository file, test, or entry point. Start by locating the VSCode integration responsible for Outline navigation and cursor changes. Done means the highlighted Outline item follows the cursor while navigating a source document.
