Portmaster and update progress, suggestion.

I'm thinking about some kind of information on the build progress when 
one does larger updates like the newly recommendation in
/usr/ports/UPDATING

portmaster -r png-

I myself have three machines with different capacity when it comes to 
building ports.

How about a knobb one could choose that would give information after 
finishing building one port and before beginning on the next one, that 
would be something like:

finishing foo port xx ports remaining
or something in that order.

At least it would informative for me to get an idea of how far in the 
process the machine is.


Thanks
