I wrote a little script for myself that goes and queries
packages.macports.org and determines if a port will be built or use a
package; it spits out a dot graph of dependencies colored by which is going
to happen. Useful for giving a broad stroke view of how long an operation
will take.  I would think something similar would be nice to see when
starting an operation...
