I use KiCad version BZR6310 and this feature still seems missing. This bug is open for more than 6 years and nothing happened since then which is really sad.

I think highlighting wires in EEschema is a really needed feature. Especially when i think of busses where wires with different names get automatically connected to each other (see example in tutorial at http://docs.kicad-pcb.org/en/getting_started_in_kicad.html#bus-connections-in-kicad where a[] and b[] connects) and i have no possibility to really "see" which wires are connected makes schematic entries for complex circuits very hard to verify. I see the late additions to KiCad from CERN which are great features, but i would really recommend to implement the basic features which many people needs instead of advanced features which very less people need.
