Description
When running a testcase there is no log of the current keyword being executed.
I suggest implementing a highlight or mark (such as the running test case mark) to easily identify which step is currently running.

The issue provides no file, test, or entry point to start from. First locate the code that tracks running test cases and updates the RIDE interface, then determine how a currently executing keyword could be visibly marked and verify that the mark changes as execution progresses.
