I wrote i small function for the eutils.eclass.
If you call the function ecount in an ebuild, it do a brake on this point.
Same like you use epause, but it gives a red colored Countdown on Screen.
i.e
 5 3 2 1 0

Maybe it is sometimes more usefull for the user, they have an optical feedback.

I took suggestion for this function by code snipe from /usr/sbin/vdrplugin-
rebuild.

If somebody want to use it in an ebuild, we could add it.
