Any idea why yum doesn't show by default from what mirror it is downloading from? It's not like there's no space on the output strings layout...

The current mirror is not displayed 2. When there are recurrent problems (ie slow downloads) with a current YUM whatever download, one cannot identify the name of the problem mirror, because (point #1) 3. even with -v (for "verbose" operation) yum details all kinds of internal values, timings etc but NOT THE MIRROR it is downloading from. It seems like a nice RFE with no downsides I can think of, and trivial to implement. Thoughts? Comments? Expletives? ;-).
