Improve current item visibility in navigation sidebar

[HonkingGoose]

What would you like to be able to do?

It's hard to see where I am in the navigation sidebar, in the default Material for MkDocs theme. Read this discussion for screenshots and more information:

• Make the current page more visible in sidebar squidfunk/mkdocs-material#6677

Did you already have any implementation ideas?

The maintainer of Material for MkDocs said they're planning a refresh of the sidebar this year, if funds and time allow. 🥳

Another user suggested some CSS, which I tried, and did not like. I don't know enough CSS to get things looking the way I want. 😞

So the only thing I can do, is wait for the Material for MkDocs refresh. I'm creating this issue so we can track this idea/problem.

Do you want to write this feature yourself?

No
