Yep.  Or even -s...


% 
% But I would like to see some type of status when moving trees -- -v 

What, du (or, better yet, df) isn't good enough for you? ;-)


% is too much...maybe a status every N files or N bytes moved?
% Something more generic than this?
% 
% Maybe something like that could accomplish you're purpose too?

The patch sounds neat, though I haven't tried it yet.  Maybe bbloatware,
but quite handy.
