It's easy enough to do so, but I don't readily see any benefits.

The '--verbose-log' of each test script is written to a separate
file, whose name already contains the test number, so there is no use
including it for each test case in there.  When running a test script
and looking at its '--verbose' output, then surely all test numbers
must be from that particular test script, so there is no use, either.

As for the test case number, since the test cases are not numbered in
the test scripts, I just ignore them right away, and look for test
names anyway.

Could you give an example?
