Description
Originally submitted to Google Code by frankbp on 7 Mar 2013
'Pause On Failure' is good feature.
But when using 'Wait Until Keyword Succeeds', most of time the keyword will fail for the first time but the 'outer' keyword is not failed. Could it be possible to detect those kind of scenarios?
Thanks.

Research direction
Start by tracing how RIDE implements “Pause On Failure” and how it observes “Wait Until Keyword Succeeds.” Determine where an inner keyword failure is distinguished from failure of the outer keyword. Done means transient failures inside “Wait Until Keyword Succeeds” no longer trigger the pause, while genuine outer-keyword failures still do.
