Wget non verbose switch is nearly the same as quiet switch. Just one line tells the user when a file finished. What I miss from non verbose switch is some compact information of the download like percentage, download rate and ETA. Especially useful to see if a download actually starts or the server is not capable to answer. Would it be interesting then to set non verbose switch as default for emerge fetches? To drop some output one is usually not interested in on emerge fetches.
