Displaying overall percentage in pacman?

Sorry for spaming threads...
But I think opening a new is better since it's a completely different topic
What about displying the percentage of the whole package donloading process?

Here's what i mean:
:: Retrieving packages from core...
(08%) gcc-libs-4.4.0-3-i686   1860.4K   46.2K/s 00:00:40 [##############################] 100%
(33%) pcre-7.9-1-i686            651.8K   45.7K/s 00:00:14 [##############################] 100%
(75%) glib2-2.20.3-1-i686          2.3M   45.9K/s 00:00:52 [##############################] 20%

So this would be quite like the package number display in the actual update process...

( 2/23) upgrading pcre                              [#######################################] 100%
( 3/23) upgrading glib2                             [#######################################] 100%
( 4/23) upgrading libdatrie                         [#######################################] 100%
( 5/23) upgrading libthai                           [#######################################] 100%
( 6/23) upgrading pango                             [######################################] 100%

opinions?

Re: Displaying overall percentage in pacman?

I think you should look at "man pacman.conf"...  Specifically the "TotalDownload" section
