Changing default output of the build system ("half-verbose" option)?

[Gregor Anich]

Hi!

I was playing around with the output of our build system a bit... I very 
much like the way Linux-2.6 does it - it looks like this:
[RC]      ntoskrnl.rc
[AS]      ke/i386/multiboot.S
[PCH]     include/ntoskrnl.h
[CC]      ex/i386/interlck.c
[CC]      ke/i386/exp.c
...
[CC]      inbv/inbv.c
[AR]      ntoskrnl.a
[LD]      ntoskrnl.nostrip.exe
[RSYM]    ntoskrnl.sym
[OBJDUMP] ntoskrnl.map
[LD]      ntoskrnl.exe
ntoskrnl.exe was successfully built.

I think everybody will like this output - my question is wether
1) it should become the default (if VERBOSE is unset) and the old output 
can be produced if VERBOSE=yes
or
2) the old output should stay the default and the fancy one should be 
used if VERBOSE=half or something like this

If noone else will, I vote for nonverbose.
You should however document this variable. Maybe on the wiki???
