Currently, scripts report their output through logging.
However, the log output doesn't render whilst the script is running.
This could be a good first step to indicate how far along a script is and to show the user that it's indeed doing something.
We could imagine adding a QPlainTextEdit with a particular name LogOutput or something like that. In the ScriptDialogItem, if we find such QPlainTextEdit, we initalize it in readonly log mode, and redirect the logging output to it.
Hint: there's a small syntaxhilighting in GUI that could be used, see LogHighlighter
