In the IABot management interface, add a way for users to see whether a "main worker" (the one which cycles all articles alphabetically) is actually doing something and which article it is working on.

(Currently, I have the feeling that IABot is restarting and stuck in a loop at the beginning of the alphabet on dewiki, as it is constantly passing by this article, and it rarely makes a "regular" edit, but I have no way of knowing what is going on.)
