Highlighting of the active tab is done by Qt and uses the system style
(if you did not configure your own style sheet). If the active tab is
not clearly recognizable, that happens with other Qt6 based apps as
well. However, you may create your own style sheet to overwrite that and
configure eric7 to use that.
Over here, the active tab is clearly highlighted.

Good idea. However, the entry for the current tab will be shown using a
bold font.
